Croatia vs Poland Prediction & Betting Tips - UEFA Nations League
by Sridhar in UEFA Nations League Predictions
Croatia will be keen not to lose a second match in succession as they continue their UEFA Nations League 2024-25 campaign against Poland. This League A group 1 match at the Opus Arena in Osijek on Sunday is likely to see both teams end up with goals.
After the first matchday, Poland is top of the group with three points, while Croatia is bottom with zero points. Croatia lost 2-1 to Portugal in their first match, with Cristiano Ronaldo netting his 900th international goal and helping his side win full points. The result extended Croatia’s winless run to four games, drawing and losing two matches each.
The 2022-23 edition runners-up wouldn’t want to lose a second consecutive match and complicate their chances of progression. Two draws and a win from their last three home competitive matches give Croatia an advantage, but Poland travel here with confidence of breaking that streak. A 3-2 win over Scotland gave them a winning start, where they conceded twice after taking a 2-0 lead, only for a late penalty to win them the match.
The result ended a three-game winless streak in which the visitors drew once and lost twice. Interestingly, all these matches have ended with goals at both ends, so another game full of goals could be in the offing.
They wouldn’t mind being on the road, though, as Poland’s last two Nations League wins have both come away from home. In fact, the visitors have remained unbeaten in their last four away competitive matches, drawing and winning two each during regular time.

Our Croatia vs Poland Prediction
Poland went close to dropping points against Scotland, but a late penalty earned them full points on matchday one. They would be a confident team now, as they prepare to take on Croatia. The Croats came second-best to Portugal and will look to bounce back, as another defeat here could prove disastrous to their chances of progression. Both teams are likely to push ahead, and going by the recent evidence, there could be goals here. That’s why our prediction for Croatia v Poland is for both teams to score goals.
