Croatia 0-0 England: 5 talking points

Tough road ahead for both teams

Croatia v England - UEFA Nations League A

England and Croatia, both were beaten by Spain in their first match. As La Roja sits comfortably at the top of the table, the fight is between Croatia and England to avoid relegation. England will be facing Spain in Seville next Monday. A win for Spain could well but end Croatia’s chances of topping the group.

Croatia will host Jordan in the same stadium on Monday. They don't have any Nations League fixture until next month. They will host Spain at Zagreb on 16th November, before traveling to London to face England at Wembley three days later. Both the matches are very important for their survival in the nations league. If they are relegated, then it will set a bad precedent for the World Cup finalists.

Zlatko Dalic, the Croatia coach may need to tweak formation for his team. He should also give Nikola Kalinic a chance to build up attacking solidity.
