Our Croatia vs Slovakia Prediction
Croatia have the upper hand here; they won away to Slovakia and the two face off at a place Croatia have become very comfortable playing. Croatia have no loss in 34 home matches in Euro qualifiers and perhaps the only thing they will worry of is their defence, having conceded in eight of the last 10. Slovakia on the other hand, also have a poor defence, with no clean sheet in the last seven. Five of the last seven of Croatia’s matches in Euro qualifiers have produced over 2.5 goals. Three of Slovakia’s last five matches have also produced over 2.5 goals. While we expect Croatia to emerge winners here, we feel this game will produce over 2.5 goals.
