Harry Kane leads England coming off a Bundesliga golden boot at Bayern Munich. Jude Bellingham’s creativity is the engine; Phil Foden provides the link play. Kane is fit and certain to start. Bukayo Saka recovered from a hamstring knock.
Luka Modrić at 40 still plays, orchestrating. Mateo Kovacić provides the legs. Croatia’s tactical intelligence must compensate for physical decline.
England win. The market at 1.82 is correct. England’s quality in wide areas through Saka and Foden will eventually break Croatia down. Kane’s movement and finishing quality tells.
