GARETH SOUTHGATE’S young guns have the chance to fulfil their potential on the big stage in Euro 2020 but they could find Croatia a tough nut to crack tomorrow.
The visitors to Wembley are not the side they were at the 2018 World Cup, when they reached the final, but still boast some formidable players.
And although England go into their Group D opener looking for a seventh straight win, their recent performances have not been convincing.
Two single-goal wins against Romania and Austria suggest that tomorrow’s clash could be another tight affair.
I reckon Southgate’s men – who are 7-10 with Betfred for the win – could be forced to settle for a draw at 11-4.
