Match Stats
Match Preview: Spain vs Croatia
This meeting will mark the 11th head-to-head between this pair, with Spain holding six victories from the 10 already played.
The two faced off as most recently as last year, with a 0-0 draw being played out before Spain won on penalties in the UEFA Nations League Final.
Spain and Croatia also came to blows in a thrilling 5-3 contest at Euro 2020 as part of the last-16 games, with the Spaniards also proving victorious that day.
A couple of recent friendly results, 3-3 with Brazil and a 1-0 defeat to Colombia, haven't been the most flattering for Spain, however, they did the business in Group A qualifying, finishing top and losing only once to second place Scotland, and scored 10 goals in their final two warm-up games.
Croatia were made to settle for runners-up status in Group D behind Turkey, losing back-to-back games before bouncing back with wins over Latvia and Armenia. They are currently enjoying a six-game winning run, which includes a 2-1 victory over Portugal.
The Best Betting Markets For Spain vs Croatia
Although their most recent duel returned no goals, pitting two highly competitive teams against one another early into the group stages feels like a good venue for goals.
Over 2.5 Goals is a shade under even money at the time of writing and with both teams boasting a number of vibrant attacking options, it feels as though caution will be thrown to the wind in this one.
Also, considering how Spain are odds-on favourites to win their opening group game, there may be value to be had in backing Croatia-Draw in the Double Chance market given their inconsistencies of late. Zlatko Dalic's side continue to surprise at major tournaments, having placed third in Qatar and finishing as runners-up to France in Russia before that.
Spain vs Croatia Head-To-Head Statistics
These two teams have faced one another 10 times, with Spain coming out on top six times, including the last two meetings, drawing once and Croatia winning the remaining three.
Three of these fixtures have previously come at the European Championships; Spain being triumphant twice and Croatia earning a 2-1 victory at Euro 2016, which condemned the losers to second spot in Group D.
