Nations League action continues! For Matchday 4 in Group 3 of League A, Croatia and Spain meet this Tuesday at 2:45 PM ET at Stadion Poljud in Split. Slaven Bilic's return at the helm of the Vatreni hasn't gone according to plan. The new head coach got off to a solid start in this European competition with a 2-1 road win over the Czech Republic. But since then, Croatia have dropped 2 brutal losses in a row, including the worst defeat in their history, a 7-0 blowout against England. Turning things around midweek won't be easy.Everything's going right for Spain. After claiming the World Cup title in the summer of 2026, La Roja haven't let up in the Nations League either, winning all 3 of their matches so far in this Group 3 campaign. Luis de la Fuente's side are already closing in on a quarterfinal spot, and they'll look to wrap up this international break in style with another convincing win.

Our Croatia vs Spain Prediction
Spain have been rock solid since this Nations League campaign kicked off, still without dropping a single point through their first 3 matches. La Roja have also been clinical in front of goal. Led by a red-hot Lamine Yamal, they've already scored 10 goals. Luis de la Fuente's side look poised to keep that going on the road against Croatia, especially with their next opponent still reeling from a brutal 7-0 defeat to England.
Our Croatia vs. Spain prediction: Spain win & over 2.5 goals in the match!
