England vs Croatia — Match Preview

England vs Croatia carries tournament history — Croatia knocked England out of the 2018 World Cup semi-final (2-1 AET) and beat them at Euro 2020 in the group stage. England will want revenge. Jude Bellingham, Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka make this Three Lions squad arguably the most talented in England history.

Croatia's golden generation — Modrić, Kovačić, Gvardiol — are ageing but dangerous. Modrić at 40 will likely be playing his last World Cup. England should win comfortably on paper but Croatia can hurt England when it matters most. Expect a tight first half with England's quality telling in the second.

England to Win

via Betsson

1.55

Bet Now →

England have the strongest squad they have ever assembled — Bellingham at Real Madrid, Kane as Bayern's top scorer, Saka at Arsenal. Croatia are ageing and England should finally put the 2018 humiliation to rest. A 2-0 or 2-1 England win is our prediction. At 1.55, solid value.
