Spain vs. Croatia: Nations League Predictions, Odds, and Top Bets
More than six thousand spectators witnessed a harsh day for Croatia in Rijeka, as England handed Slaven Bilic's team a crushing 7-0 defeat — the heaviest loss in their men's international history. Now, Croatia faces a daunting challenge hosting world champions Spain at Stadion Poljud in Split. Spain, led by Luis de la Fuente, remain unbeaten in their last 41 games, setting a world record, including ten consecutive wins.

Top Betting Picks for Spain vs. Croatia
- Spain to score first (-334 at bet365): Spain often starts aggressively, with Lamine Yamal scoring early in recent matches — after 104 seconds against England at Wembley, 70 seconds in Seville, and within six minutes versus Czechia. Croatia’s sole opening goal in the Nations League came against Czechia, while they conceded first against tougher opponents like Spain and England.
- Spain to score two or more goals (-356 at DraftKings): Spain has netted 10 goals in three Nations League games so far. Following Croatia’s defensive collapse in the 7-0 loss, expecting two or more goals from Spain aligns with the 2-0 scoreline prediction.
- Lamine Yamal to score (+110 at FanDuel): Yamal has scored within six minutes in three straight matches. Croatia will be eager to respond early at Poljud. Although he was substituted at halftime in the game against Czechia, that decision was tactical rather than injury-related.
