Croatia vs Italy Team Overview

Croatia

Croatia are at the bottom of Group B after two rounds of fixtures at EURO2024. They have picked up one point after they could only draw 2-2 against Albania following their matchday one 3-0 loss against group leaders Spain.

Given the expectations following them, Croatia will hope for a brilliant showing against Italy as they look to advance to the knockout stages.

Croatia are capable of upsetting Italy in the final group match. They will make it difficult for the Italians to bolster their chances of a win and make it into the knockouts.

Italy

Italy dominates our UEFA EURO 2024 predictions as one of the sides that will do well, given their quality and status as the defending champions.

A 2-1 win against Albania was followed by a defeat against Spain that saw them play on the back foot and pose little attacking threat.

This means they are second on the table with three points and will need to win their final match against Croatia to guarantee passage into the knockout stages.

Croatia vs Italy Player Focus

With the stakes high for both sides, the respective coaches will look to fix their weaknesses in the opening two rounds of fixtures while bolstering their strong areas.

Croatia will look to add a new layer to their midfield that has failed to hit their usual standards. Modrić, Kovačić, and Brozović will need to step up their game ahead of their clash against the Azzurri.

Spalletti will look to fix their lack of cutting edge in the final third, with a likely reshuffle to get the best out of Scamacca, Chiesa, and Pellegrini in the final third.

Croatia vs Italy Tactical Analysis

Tactical tweaks are expected in the clash between Croatia and Italy as the match has taken a knockout stature, with each side looking to win and get the three points they need to bolster their chances of passage to the knockout stages.

Spalletti is likely to persist with the 4-3-3 shape he has used in the opening two matches; however, he will tweak it to nullify Croatia’s midfield strengths and hand their attackers an edge in the offensive phase.

Conceding twice against Albania means that Dalić will take steps to tighten their defensive phase against Italy on Monday. They will retain the 4-3-3 shape but maintain a robust and narrow structure to minimize penetration through the middle when they are defending.

Croatia vs Italy Prediction

  • Football pick: The match to end in a draw
  • Odds: 3/26 (22bet)
  • Score prediction: Croatia 2-2 Italy

Italy and Croatia will look to win their final match of the group. This will create an open affair with both sides emphasizing attacking. The result is likely to be a high-scoring clash. 

Given their showings at the European Championship so far, this match is likely to end in a draw

Croatia vs Italy Betting Tip

  • Football Pick: Total Over 2.5
  • Odds: 1.92 (22bet)

Given that this is the final match of the group stage and neither side has secured a spot in the knockouts yet, both teams have everything to play for. With a win, either side can still make it out of the group, which guarantees an attacking approach from both teams.

This dynamic establishes the likelihood of a high-scoring match, making a Total Over 2.5 our EURO 2024 betting tip
