In the first semifinal, Lionel Messi's Argentina will take on last year's runners-up Croatia at Lusail Stadium, Doha on Wednesday.
Luka Modric's side will play their second consecutive semifinal in the World Cup since making their debut in the tournament in 1998.
Croatia have qualified in all the World Cups barring the 2010 edition since 1998. The European nation is eyeing to become the first back-to-back finalists since Brazil in 2002.
On the other hand, Messi will hope to live up to his dream of lifting the coveted title and taking his side to the final.
World Cup title is the only major trophy missing from the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner's cabinet. Argentina have won the title twice in 1976 and 1986. The South American last lifted the title under Diego Maradona's leadership as he led them to victory over West Germany in the final.
