Is Portugal v Croatia on TV? Channel, kick-off and how to watch World Cup last-32 clash

Portugal and Croatia are due to square off in a mouthwatering World Cup tie, with one major nation destined to be eliminated in the round of 32 . After Portugal were runners-up to Colombia in their group, they have drawn a tricky tie here, against a Croatia side that finished second to England in their pool. Portugal were slow off the mark with a 1-1 draw against DR Congo, with much focus on Cristiano Ronaldo playing every minute and failing to impress. But Roberto Martinez’s team picked things up with a 5-0 thrashing of Uzbekistan, in which Ronaldo was on the scoresheet twice . A 0-0 draw with Colombia rounded out Portugal’s group campaign (with Ronaldo still having played every minute at the tournament), while Croatia followed their 4-2 loss to England with a 1-0 win over Panama and a 2-1 victory against Ghana.
