Group theory predicts two singly degenerate (A1) vibrational modes and two doubly degenerate (E) vibrational modes. This is consistent with the appearance of four fundamentals in the experimental IR and Raman spectra. It further predicts that there are two stretches and two bends. This is also consistent with the experimental data.
