Joint group leaders face a Wales side boosted by victory in Scotland on Fri.
Croatian duo Igor Stimac and Josip Simunic both underlined the importance of not solely concentrating on dangerous Wales playmaker Gareth Bale ahead of the two nations’ World Cup Group A qualifier in Swansea on Tuesday night.
The visitors currently lead Chris Coleman’s men by seven points at the halfway point on the road to next summer’s World Cup finals in Brazil and so know that anything other than defeat will all but guarantee them a place in the top two of the final group standings.
