Czech Republic v Croatia : UEFA Nations League match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 26th Sep, 19:45 BST, Eden Arena, Prague

Croatia pay UEFA Nations League rivals Czech Republic a visit on Saturday evening, as Slaven Bilić guides his team into an away clash with Santiago Denia Sánchez & co. at the Eden Arena. In this preview you'll find odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers for 17 different markets, alongside supporting data that updates as you explore. Our predictions are based on 20-game form, so all statistics are shown for each side's last 20 too. Home, away and overall records can be found, while there's also head to head (H2H) history later on in the preview.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

We make over 1.5 goals our top tip on this match, meaning that the sides will score a minimum of 2 goals between them during 90 minutes. Both Czech Rep and Croatia's current form stats suggest goals are to be expected, while their head-to-head (H2H) record adds further weight to the argument. The bookies make it the most likely outcome in this market too, available at 1.22.

Goal Statistics

Croatia's defensive record is very strong, S. Bilić's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive UEFA Nations League games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Czech Republic makes sense in this context.

Croatia have been consistent in attack of late, finding the net in 5 consecutive UEFA Nations League games. Their PG of 1.7 against Czech Republic on Saturday suggests they're likely to extend that run.
