CROATIA V ENGLAND This one’s a repeat of the World Cup semi-final! Just three months ago, these two sides were lining up to fight for the chance to reach the 2018 World Cup final, but now they’re trying to avoid relegation from this UEFA Nations League group!

England showed against Spain that they’re still lacking a world-class…

THE SCENE... England’s place at the Euros had been under threat ever since an unfortunate goalkeeping error by Paul Robinson in Croatia. A year later, they only needed a point against the group leaders to reach the tournament, and they were big favourites to get it at Wembley… THE TEAMS... WHAT HAPPENED? Once again, England’s keeper made a blunder! Scott Carson was at fault for the opener as Croatia went 2-0 up before half-time and, even though Frank Lampard and Peter Crouch got it back to 2-2, Croatia found a winner! WHAT CAME NEXT? England boss Steve McClaren was sacked by England the very next day, and Fabio Capello took over. In qualifying for the 2010 World Cup, The Three Lions beat Croatia 4-1 and 5-1, and didn’t lose a…

1 ISRAEL v SCOTLAND Scotland are favourites to win their UEFA Nations League group, and they need to build on last month’s 2-0 victory against Albania. The only side Israel have beaten since the start of 2017 is Liechtenstein, so the away team will fancy their chances, especially if Ryan Fraser brings his Premier League form to the game – he’s been sick! 2 AUSTRIA v N. IRELAND Both of these nations lost to Bosnia last month, so this is their chance to pick up their first points of the campaign. Northern Ireland don’t win many away games, while Brazil are the only team to win in Austria since 2016, so this’ll be a tough game for Michael O’Neill’s men. If they’re going to get a result, they’ll need to…
