Croatia host France in the UEFA Nations League with an eye on returning to winnings ways after dismal defeats in their previous matches, respectively. France were completely outplayed at home in the 1-2 loss to Denmark, which raised a few eyebrows considering it played its first-team stars. The World champions need stability ahead of the defence of their title in Qatar later in the year. Denmark played with a game plan that restricted their attack to just six shots on target. The team will need to improve drastically should they mount a fight against Croatia. Ralf Rangnick’s masterclass saw Austria defeat Croatia comprehensively. Hence there is considerable pressure on them as well. Hungary 1-0 England, Nations League: Dominik Szoboszlai's Penalty Sinks Three Lions (Watch Goal Video Highlights)
