ENG vs CRO Dream11 Match Prediction, Fantasy Tips, Starting11, Captain/Vice-Captain for UEFA Euro 2020 Football Match– ENG vs CRO Match Preview: England will kick off their UEFA Euro 2020 campaign against Croatia at Wembley Stadium on Sunday with an eye on avenging the heartbreaking 2018 World Cup semi-final loss. Luka Modric led Croatia knocked The Three Lions out of the 2018 FIFA World Cup as they went on to finish as the runner-ups.
England is placed alongside Scotland, the Czech Republic, and Croatia in Group D and will be looking to get off to a flying start. They edged Poland 2-1 in a qualifier for next year’s World Cup two months ago at the same Wimbley Stadium where they will host Croatia on Sunday. Also, England took an edge over Croatia at Wembley in November 2018 en route to the Nations League semi-finals.
Apart from this, if we look at the graphs of both teams since that 2018 Fifa World Cup semi-final, the two teams have moved in opposite directions. While Croatia’s performance has seen a downswing losing five out of the six games in the National League campaign, England has improved a lot.
Moreover, The Three Lions have never reached the final of the European Championship and will be looking forward to changing that this time. The match will begin at 06:30 PM IST and will live stream on Sony Sports Network in India.
