The Czech Republic and Croatia meet in Saint Etienne this evening in what will prove to be a crucial game for both sides.

The Czech Republic fell to defeat at the first hurdle in a tough opener against Spain and they know that a defeat against Croatia today will make it very difficult for them to progress to the knockout stages.

Croatia on the other hand looked sharp when they started their campaign with a solid 1-0 victory over Turkey and a win here will almost certainly mean that they make it to the next stage of the tournament.

Croatia will come in to this game full of confidence and we expect them to take advantage of an out of sorts Czech Republic and secure three points.

Luca Modric and Ivan Rakitic ran the show from midfield against Turkey and we think that the Czech Republic will struggle to stop them this evening.

Croatia to score two goals or more looks like it could be an absolute gem at 6/5.

In the goalscorer markets, we really like the look of the always lethal Mario Mandzukic to score anytime at 7/4.

The Croatian hitman has been on phenomenal form for Juventus this season and has been well backed to finish the tournament's top scorer.
