England play their final home match of the Nations League group stage when Croatia visit Wembley on Thursday.
The Three Lions are in a fantastic position to qualify for the quarter-finals in March after hammering Slaven Bilic’s side 7-0 last month and look good for another win here.
Croatia have lost their last three matches and were something of a rabble during that heavy defeat in Rijeka.
Here are our football tips for the clash at Wembley, producing a 10/1 Bet Builder.
England v Croatia betting tips
England to win by 2+ goals 4/6
Over 3.5 goals 23/20
Harry Kane to take 3+ shots on target 1/10
Elliot Anderson to take 1+ shot on target 7/5
England to win by 2+ goals
England made light work of Croatia and Czech Republic during the last international window and can set the same tone here.
Thomas Tuchel’s side have won their last three matches by at least two goals, while only Spain have prevented them from winning by that margin in a competitive home match under the German.
Croatia were also beaten 4-1 away to Spain in September and lost 4-2 to the Three Lions at the World Cup.
Over 3.5 goals
Both of those recent England wins over this opposition have featured at least six goals, so backing four or more feels safe.
The hosts are clearly in relentless mood after their World Cup semi-final retreat against Argentina, with performances and words from the squad suggesting they don’t want to make the same mistake again.
That should lead to a heavy win here, with Croatia capable of adding to the scoring having seen at least three goals scored in their last six games.
Harry Kane to take 3+ shots on target
This is a huge night for Kane, as he becomes England’s most-capped men’s international of all time.
He is bound to want to celebrate that occasion with a goal – just as he did on the occasion of his 100th cap against Finland in 2024, when he had five shots on target.
His price to score is very short, so we will follow the same theme and back him to hit the target at least three times (though he will probably also find the net).
Elliot Anderson to take 1+ shot on target
Anderson will likely be reunited with Declan Rice in England’s midfield here and it will be interesting to see which of them plays a deeper role.
Either way, the Manchester City man is in fine form and had a shot on target in Saturday’s defeat at Nottingham Forest.
His goal threat becomes even more considerable when he played for England, though. He had six shots across the four games in the last camp and backing him to work the keeper with one of them is a nice way of boosting the odds.
England v Croatia odds
This should be another good night for England on home soil, one on which they can book their place in the quarter-finals and celebrate their most capped player.
Another big win and performance from Kane gives this 10/1 football betting Bet Builder a good chance.
