Wales vs Croatia prediction
Wales’s chances of qualifying from this 5 team group are looking bleak and they need a turnaround fast. They are currently 4th with 7 points from 5 games and it is now crucial to win this home game. In the first leg of this tie, Wales managed an impressive 1-1 draw away to Croatia and will be hoping to go one step better at home to win.
Croatia lead the group with 10 points but only a better goal difference separates them from 2nd placed Turkey. The Croats are unbeaten so far in the group after 4 matches (W3 D1) and will draw confidence from the fact that they have not lost to Wales in the last 7 meetings (W4 D3).
For our Wales vs Croatia prediction, we go for a Correct Score of 1-2. This is likely to be a closely fought match and there is little to separate the two teams However, Croatia are in good form and have what it takes to grind a narrow win here.

Prediction 3: Over 2.5 Bookings
For Wales, this is like a do or die match if they want to salvage any hopes of making it out of the group and qualifying for Euro next year. Croatia know that only a win can guarantee that they keep their place at the top of the group. We, thus, expect a tough clash with many fouls here and there. This is likely to lead to several bookings in the game and we predict at least 3 bookings in total.
