Spain, reigning World Cup champions, host in Seville riding an 8-match winning streak with a 4-1 record in the last 5 meetings against Croatia, and a squad valued at over 3 times their opponents. However, De la Fuente has voiced frustration over the 4-games-in-11-days schedule, hinting at rotation. Croatia under new coach Bilić opened with an away win over Czechia, and 40-year-old Modrić remains their midfield engine. Spain hold a clear edge but fatigue management introduces uncertainty.

Model insight
Spain are on an eight-match winning run with a huge squad-value edge and have dominated recent home meetings with Croatia. Four games in 11 days and a bruising win in England three days ago leave recovery in doubt. Croatia have scored in five straight competitive matches and Modrić can still dictate tempo, so a draw is the live alternative.

Model insight
Spain have won eight in a row and are worth roughly three times Croatia's squad; they have won four of the last five meetings, including 3-0 at Euro 2024. Croatia have scored in five straight competitive games, but Spain's four matches in 11 days may force rotation and slow the tempo. Spain to win by one or two.
Spain play four games in 11 days and the coach has publicly criticised the schedule, so rotation and reduced attacking sharpness are real risks
Croatia have averaged 1.6 goals across their last five competitive games, and Modric and Perisic can still create from set pieces or counters, where one chance can change the scoreline
