Croatia vs Italy Prediction: Italy will likely play their usual pragmatic football, so we shouldn't expect a high-scoring game.

Match Stats

After an unsuccessful opening match against Spain, where the Croats conceded three unanswered goals, many expected them to win the match against Albania. Dalic's team was trailing during the match but managed to turn the game around and take the lead, though they couldn't hold on for the win.


Heading into the final match, Croatia is in a dire situation, as nothing but a win will suffice. Beating the Italians is possible, but can the current Croatian team achieve this?

After a tough match against Albania in the first round, the reigning European champions did not impress at all in the game against Spain. The outcome of the match was decided by an own goal from Bologna defender Calafiori, and Spalletti's side struggled to create any meaningful attacking opportunities.


A draw against Croatia will guarantee the Italians second place in the group and thus a spot in the playoffs. Even with a loss, they could still advance to the playoffs from third place, but losing is highly undesirable.


Prediction: Croatia+0.25
