Slovakia Croatia betting prediction

After 2 wins and 1 loss, the home team is currently in the 2^nd position, with 6 points won. In the last match, they have won (1‑5) in an away match against Azerbaijan, after in the previous round they have lost (1‑0) in an away match against Wales. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 29 goals scored and 9 conceded. In the last 8 home matches Slovakia has won 6, tied 1 and lost 1. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 7 of the last 8 have ended with Over 1,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 6 of their 15 matches, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Slovakia will be in contention for a place in the upcoming European Championship and they certainly won't want to be left behind. When facing a direct competitor it becomes practically an obligation to win, especially when playing next to their fans. Of course the team won't have any facilities, but they have the potential to defeat the opponent and will fight hard for it. This is a game to get attention from start to finish, from defense to attack, as the hosts need to be close to perfection to avoid a setback. In this match the best players available will be in the field.
