The World Cup is well and truly under way now and we have got an exciting matchup on Wednesday evening. England will be entering the tournament and taking on Croatia in what should be an entertaining contest.

England were on of the big favourites going into this tournament and will want to get off to a good start. Croatia is still well respected but are looking a bit older now and winning the tournament is probably beyond them.

Here are our top three football betting tips ahead of Wednesday evening’s clash at AT&T Stadium in Texas.

England to win and both teams to score

England have progressively got better over the last few years and made it to the Euros final two years ago only to lose to Spain. Since then, Thomas Tuchel has taken over from Gareth Southgate as manager. 

The Three Lions have had a good World Cup qualifying campaign winning all eight of their games and not conceding a goal. They had a solid warmup to this tournament with two wins against New Zealand and Costa Rica and will be hoping to go far.

Firstly, though they must take on a Croatian side that still has plenty of talent in it but is getting older now. They won seven of their eight qualifying games and will expect to do well in this World Cup.

Their warmup games included a 2-0 loss to Belgium and a 2-1 win against Slovenia, but they will still be tough to beat. 40-year-old Luka Modric will be hoping to turn back the years along with 37-year-old Ivan Perisic and 34-year-old forwards Ante Budimir and Andrej Kramaric.

Expect Croatia to cause England problems but not enough to stop them winning.

Elliot Anderson to be shown a card

Elliot Anderson has had a great season for Nottingham Forest this year and is now a regular England starter. The combative midfielder started 37 games in the Premier League, but he committed 57 fouls and got eight yellow cards.

He also had another three yellow cards and one red card during Nottingham Forest’s Europa League campaign. He wasn’t booked during England’s qualifying campaign, but Croatia will easily be the toughest opponent he has seen in an England shirt.

Expect Anderson to get in a few scraps and potentially get himself a card.

Andrej Kramaric 1+ shot on target, Harry Kane to score anytime, Elliot Anderson to be shown a card

Andrej Kramaric has been great for Croatia for many years now and he has been in good form this season at TSG Hoffenheim. He had 64 shots with 33 of them hitting the target for Hoffenheim and 23 shots with 11 hitting the target during Croatia’s qualifying campaign.

Harry Kane is the main man for England and has been for many years. He has been on fire for Bayern Munich this season scoring 36 goals and should get some opportunities in this game.

Finally add Elliot Anderson to be shown a card. The Nottingham Forest midfielder saw 12 yellows and one red in all competitions last season. He could easily pick up another one here.

Підсумок

The 2026 FIFA World Cup match between England and Croatia at AT&T Stadium promises an exciting contest. England, one of the tournament favorites, aims to start strong, while Croatia, though experienced, faces challenges due to an aging squad.

Key betting tips include England to win with both teams scoring, Harry Kane to score anytime, Andrej Kramaric to have at least one shot on target, and Elliot Anderson to receive a card.
