If you’re putting money on this one, here’s the unvarnished truth.
Croatia (hrk) at 3.03 to win feels a tad skinny given their inconsistencies in the ESB Volta (2x3 min.) this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re due a regression — stats nerds would steer clear.
Italy (kirman)’s 2.36 odds tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The wise guys’ll likely target the Draw 2.7 — these big games often play out tight, and pressure can kill attacking flow.
