On Saturday night, England will play their third Nations League game of the international break, facing Croatia in Rijeka.
After their loss to Spain, England beat Czechia in Prague and will now head to Croatia for their penultimate game of this set of Nations League fixtures.
Having met at the World Cup, the Three Lions are strong favourites to win again here, but a shock cannot be ruled out, with results under Slavan Bilic looking strong enough so far.
Let's dive into our selections for the game.
Croatia vs. England: Betting Tips
Below, you can find Ben's tips for Croatia vs. England. The odds were correct at the time of writing.
A Closer Look at Ben’s Tips
It's a replay of a World Cup game, but there are plenty of differences here. In other words, it won't be an easy game to call because of what happened before.
Nevertheless, the majority expect England to grab a win again, even if they do have to do it away from home now.
Croatia Predicted XI vs. England (4-2-3-1): Livakovic; Smolcic, Sutalo, Pongracic, Gvardiol; Modric, Kovacic; Marco Pasalic, Sucic, Perisic; Beljo.
England Predicted XI vs. Croatia (4-2-3-1): Pickford; Alexander-Arnold, Konsa, Branthwaite, Hall; Anderson, Scott; Saka, Bellingham, Gordon; Kane.
-
Gordon to have 1+ Shot on Target - 8/13
Anthony Gordon is in fine form currently and whilst it's our lowest price of the lot here, I still think we're getting incredible value.
He's had a shot on target in 16 of his past 20 games for club and country, whilst having 12 shots on target in his last 10 games for England.
-
Pasalic to make 1+ Foul - 8/11
This selection is one where I'm hoping the expected line-ups are correct, with Pasalic looking like potential value on the right against Lewis Hall, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Anthony Gordon.
He made a foul and got a yellow card against a difficult Spanish left side and it may be no different against England.
Gordon has drawn nine fouls in his last five games, Lewis-Skelly has drawn four in this break and Hall drew one against Czechia.
Just be careful here though; we're looking for MARCO Pasalic to be fouled, not Mario Pasalic.
-
Over 1.5 England Goals - 3/4
Croatia's goal record is fascinating; they've conceded five during this break and during their four-game run at the World Cup, they conceded seven times.
They score plenty too, with their last blank coming in June - so maybe BTTS holds some value - but I think England will be pushed to win here by outscoring their opponents and this price looks generous.
-
Over 5.5 England Corners - 7/5
England have dominated the corners in games so far this international break, having 12 across two games. However, it's not uncommon for them.
In their last 20 games, they've had an average of 6.55 corners per game and with Croatia averaging 4.95 against per game, it feels like a great price.
-
Sucic to have 1+ Shot On Target - 3/1
I'm really surprised that this is the highest price of the lot. Sucic has been heavily involved so far this season with Inter, having five shots (with Super Sub) in four games.
With shots on target in each of his Nations League games this time around too, he looks a huge price at 3/1 and England certainly aren't invincible when it comes to conceding chances.
