My Prediction Personal Take
This will be interesting. England have really improved on the field since Tuchel took over from Southgate and play more attacking and are scoring more goals. Croatia has really gotten things back together since Euro 2024, although not quite as strong as World Cup 2022 but close. However Croatia has probably the best mental strength and management of any team in this whole tournament. Honestly I can foresee a very cautious tactical opening game between England & Croatia as neither will want to lose the opening match. Very likely ends in a draw. However England tops the group because they will definitely have a larger goal difference than Croatia with the other matches. Ghana third and Panama last.
