Reasoning	Well, a interesting game between two almost equal teams if to look from the class point of view. Croatia are rated as the favourites for this one but certain here I have to disagree as this team has been underrated by all during the competition and everytime didn't proved their real level. Lets take a look to Coratia's latest five games: won against Australia and Argentina only, drawn with Serbia and lost in both a litter bit more difficult games against Denmark and Sweden. So, as a conclusion Croatia never showed their real level, the level from the past years. Today they will play against Poland, a team that have lost in the latest five games from the same two teams as Croatia did: Denmark and Sweden but have to mentionate that in the game against Denmark they did had some real chances to win or drawn at least, the luck only decided the winner in the end. So, Croatia are favourites in today's game despite they stil didn't proved to deserve this position, well I think that the value goes on Poland's side. Good Luck!

Reasoning	Well, if to find the second team after France then I will say that Spain should deserve the second place, this team have been very impressive in this competition, they have won clear against every team, the single one game where they didn't managed to win has been the game against France where they have drawn 28-28. Spain even yesterday did showed some great handball as they have played so well against Iceland, a very good team. Today they will play against Hungary, a team that comes after a big victory with Germany but speaking about this game I have to mentionate that Germany didn't played their best recently. Hungary are a litter bit overrated because of their yestrday's victory but IMO the class difference and form shouldhave the word today as Spain are playing so well at he moment. All in all, Spain have real chances to win the competition and playing against a team like Hungary they should surely dominate the play. Good Luck!
