A huge Group 3 League A Nations League matchup! For Matchday 3, Croatia and England face off this Saturday at 1:00 PM ET at Stadion HNK Rijeka. With Spain looking well on its way to topping this group, these two nations will likely be battling it out for the second spot in the quarterfinals. Croatia are well positioned here, having picked up 3 points through their first two matchdays. Slaven Bilic's side will be looking to shine in their first home match of the Nations League.

England aren't backing down, though. After falling in a wild 3-2 loss to Spain, the Three Lions bounced back in style with a 2-0 win on the road against the Czech Republic. Now, England will be looking to make a statement in Croatia. A win here would put them firmly on track for the quarterfinals. These two sides actually met during the group stage of the last World Cup, with England coming out on top in a high-scoring 4-2 win.

Our Croatia vs England Prediction

This Nations League clash is shaping up to be one worth watching! Croatia and England already faced off during the group stage of the 2026 World Cup, and that match produced 6 goals. It wouldn't be a shock to see another high-scoring affair here. With Spain looking like the clear favorite to finish atop the group, both of these nations will be fighting hard for the win and a leg up on that second quarterfinal spot.
