Match Preview: Croatia vs Scotland
Croatia kicked off their UEFA Nations League journey with a 2-1 defeat against Portugal at Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica, with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring the second and winning goal for his team. Croatia, however, recorded a narrow 1-0 win against Poland in their recent outing at the competition, so they are in a better position to win the game.
Scotland have struggled in their previous two outings at the tournament as they recorded a back-to-back defeat against Portugal and Poland. Despite scoring against their previous two opponents, it will be difficult for the Scottish men to outscore their host in this contest.
Croatia vs Scotland Match Prediction
Following their recent performances in their previous games, we are backing Croatia to win the game with a home advantage. Meanwhile, Scotland were thrashed 3-1 the last time the two nations faced each other at the EURO 2020. Notwithstanding, we predict Croatia 2-1 Scotland as the full-time result for this clash.
BTTS – YES/NO Prediction
Both sides are expected to get on the score sheet in this encounter. Despite losing against their last two opponents, Scotland found the back of the net in both encounters which suggests that they are likely to replicate the same energy in this clash. We predict both teams to score this weekend.
Predicted Starting Lineups
Croatia: Livaković; Gvardiol, Caleta-Car, Šutalo; Sosa, Kovačić, Pjaca; Petković, Modrić, Sučić; Matanović
Scotland: Gunn; Ralston, Hanley, McKenna, Robertson; Gilmour, McLean; Christie, McTominay, McGinn; Dykes
