Jorge Sampaoli's side have a point on the board but will need much more in their second game if they are to have a chance of getting out of the group
Argentina will hope to get their first win in the 2018 World Cup when they take on Group D rivals Croatia at Nizhny Novgorod Stadium on Thursday.
The Albiceleste were left feeling deflated after being held to a 1-1 draw against Iceland in their opening game and they will be desperate to bounce back with a win over a team that already has three points on the board.
Those points were secured by the Croatians following a 2-0 win over Nigeria, but they will encounter a wholly different challenge when they come up against Lionel Messi and Co.
A win for Croatia would leave Argentina's hopes of reaching the last 16 hanging by a thread and Jorge Sampaoli will be doing his utmost to avoid that scenario.
