Croatia vs Austria Prediction & Tips
Croatia and Austria face off in Group 1 of the Nations League where France are the big favourites to advance to the next round, the Gallettos making their debut against Denmark. The hosts arrive at the challenge on the strength of a long positive streak with six wins in their last eight matches, and are unbeaten since the last European Championship. The Croatian team snatched World Cup qualification in the last and decisive match against Russia, thus flying to Qatar, another confidence boost ahead of a match, the one against Austria, in which the favour of the odds is all for the hosts. The guests are fresh from the defeat against Wales, which ruled them out of the World Cup in the play-offs, and in general they are going through a period of crisis with three defeats in the last four matches, one of which is particularly difficult to digest, the 2-5 against Israel.
All five previous meetings between the two teams have seen Croatia win
Austria have lost four of their last seven official matches played
Croatia have not lost at home since 17 November 2020 (2-3 against Portugal), four out of six victories
Two away defeats in a row for Austria.
Croatia will win the Nations League clash against Austria. The Croatians have much more quality and then they can count on their home stadium, always an advantage as the statistics show. Two points in favour of our prediction in addition to Austria’s poor away record and a long track record in favour of the hosts. All of this makes us think that Modric and his teammates will prevail in the end.
