Croatia first played against Brazil in August 2005 in a friendly at Poljud stadium in Split which ended in a 1-1 draw. The following year in Germany at the World Cup Brazil got the better of Croatia thanks to a Kaka strike.

The last encounter between the two sides took place at the 2014 World Cup opener in Brazil when the host won 3-1 after Croatia took an early lead.
