So, one of the more intriguing changes see's Bruno Petkovic, who missed a late penalty against Spain, installed into the line-up.
The Dinamo Zagreb man boasts an impressive goalscoring record, notching double figures in each of his six seasons with his current club.
He has scored 11 in 38 for Croatia too, including one against Egypt in March, and is amongst the favourites to get on the break the deadlock this afternoon.

Croatia XI: Livakovic, Juranovic, Sutalo, Gvardiol, Perisic, Modric, Brozovic, Kovacic, Majer, Petkovic, KramaricAlbania XI: Strakosha, Hysaj, Ajeti, Djimsiti, Mitaj, Ramadani, Asllani, Laçi, Asani, Manaj, Bajrami A few changes for Croatia, as Josep Gvardiol switches from left-back to centre-back. This means Ivan Perisic returns to the starting XI to occupy the full-back role, whilst there is also a change on the right side of the backline too, with Josip Juranovic replacing Josip Stanisic. Elsewhere, Bruno Petkovic is preferred to Ante Budimir in attack as the 2022 World Cup semi-finalists look to bounce back from their 3-0 defeat to Spain on Saturday.
Maiden Meeting: This will be the first time that the two nations have met in any competition. Of the last 10 times that Albania have faced an opponent for the first time, they have won just once - against Faroe Islands in June 2023. They have drawn five of the other nine, losing four. Croatia are 9/20 to win the match and extend Albania's poor record.
Avoiding a Double: Croatia, as we all know, suffered a 3-0 loss against Spain last time out, and defeat on Wednesday would see them beaten in consecutive matches at the same major international tournament for the first time in almost 30 years. In fact, the last time Croatia were beaten back-to-back in either the World Cup or Euros was back in 1996, when Portugal and Germany inflicted losses upon them. Albania can be backed at 13/2 to stun the 2022 World Cup semi-finalists.
Contrasting Fortunes: Croatia have now lost three of their last five fixtures in all competitions, as many as they had in their previous 29 competitive fixtures. Albania, by contrast, have lost just one of their last eight, with defeat against Italy at the weekend being their first competitive loss since March 2023.
Croatia failed to hit the back of the net in their opening group encounter with Spain despite recording 16 efforts at goal, and posting an xG of 2.38!
Surely, they will be a little more proficient in front of goal this afternoon?
Well, if you fancy them to ripple the Albanian net on a couple of occasions later today, then why not take a look at Croatia's Total Goals market below:
Their xG of 2.38 last time out was the highest they have ever recorded at a major tournament where they have failed to score.
Lightning can't strike twice, can it?

We begin the action in Hamburg, at the Volksparkstadion, as Croatia and Albania collide, both looking to notch their first points of the group stage after succumbing to defeats on matchday one.
Croatia were put to the sword by Spain, 3-0, whilst Albania were unfortunate not to have taken a share of the spoils from their fixture with defending champions Italy.
The underdogs netted after just 23 seconds to take the lead against the Azzurri - the fastest goal in European Championship history - before Luciano Spalletti's side turned the game on its head thanks to goals from Alessandro Bastoni and Nicolo Barella.
Croatia will take to the field as the favourites, but Albania have proven they aren't in Germany to simply make up the numbers.
