Croatia
England are available at +800 when it comes to them winning 3-1. We like a correct score play and the chance to bag a nice return if our prediction is right.
Player Prop Picks
Igor Matanovic (Croatia) has finished with over 1.5 shots in four straight games. Our opinion is that there’s value for him to cover the Player Shots line, with betting odds of -115 currently on offer.
Anthony Gordon (England) has found the net in four straight games. It’s worth a gamble on the +155 for him to be Anytime Goalscorer as there’s plenty of juice in these betting odds.
