Betting tips Croatia vs Austria

In addition to Croatia and Austria, this group also includes Denmark and France. Dalic's team will play against France as in the final of the last World Cup, but also as in the last edition of the League of Nations. At the last World Cup, Croatia defeated, among others, Denmark in the round of 16, the current rival in the League of Nations.

The League of Nations is being held for two periods this year on a fairly tight schedule. Thus, four rounds are played in June, and the remaining two in September. The first four games are scheduled for June 2022, and the remaining two are in September. The winners of the four groups will advance to the final tournament in June 2023, while the last-placed teams will be relegated to League B.

Austria, although the lowest quality team in this group, can still be an unpleasant opponent. They showed that at the European Championships, reaching the round of 16 and after extra time they were eliminated by the later champion of Italy. The Fire should improve the bad impression they left in previous League of Nations games by winning with Austria, so this is an additional motive for the victory. Statistics tell us that Croatia is the favorite because they won some of the previous matches.

The odds at the time of writing are 2.1 for the Fire to win, while for Austria the odds are 3.6. Is this a good opportunity considering that one of the main Austrian players is questionable?

Rangnick leaves a good impression on the players but this is his first game on the Austrian bench. Croatia's victory is a good pick here. CS 2-0.
