Out of all the qualifying groups, this one looks the most competitive with four potential candidates and only two Euro place on offer. Slovakia, Wales, Hungary and Croatia are all on three points and the aura of unpredictability is building in Group E.
Croatia were on the wrong side of a shock 2-1 defeat to Hungary in their last international outing. This was their second loss in three games following a 2-1 defeat to England in the Nations League.
Wales, on the other hand, come into this game on the back of two straight wins. The 1-0 defeat of Trinidad and Tobago was a tad disappointing however, the 1-0 victory over group leaders Slovakia certainly gave the Welsh a huge confidence boost.
Slovakia may have tripped up against the Welsh but, an earlier victory over Hungary currently sees them lead the standings. We told you this is an entertaining group!
Looking specifically at this upcoming game in Osijek, the recommendation is to back the draw. Something is not quite right with Croatia however, you can never count them out on home turf.
What’s more, the current odds on a draw are 14/5 – considering the current circumstances, that’s not a bad offer.
