Croatia vs Czechia Competition – Nations League Stadium: Opus Arena Date: 15th November 2026 Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT
Croatia and Czechia meet at the Opus Arena on Sunday with one win between them from their last 10 games, and that win was Croatia’s 2-1 victory in Czechia in September. Spain and England are clear at the top of Group 3, so this final-round game is about third place. Croatia have lost four in a row and Czechia have lost all five of their Nations League games. Kick-off is at 7:45pm GMT.
Croatia have lost four in a row, scoring three and conceding 15 in that run. The latest was a 2-1 defeat in England on Thursday, five weeks after a 2-1 home loss to Spain. Before that, they were beaten 7-0 at home by England and 4-1 in Spain, and their only win in the sample was the 2-1 victory in Czechia in September. That makes one win and four defeats, with five goals scored and 16 conceded.
Czechia have lost all five of their Nations League games, scoring twice and conceding 12. Thursday’s 2-0 home defeat to Spain was the latest, and before that they lost 3-0 in England in October. Before those, they were beaten 3-1 in Spain, 2-0 at home by England and 2-1 at home by Croatia. Czechia failed to score in three of the five games, and their only goals came in the defeats to Spain and Croatia.
Croatia are unbeaten in the last five meetings, with two wins and three draws, and Czechia have not beaten them in the sample. The most recent was Croatia’s 2-1 win in Czechia in September. Before that, the sides drew 0-0 in Czechia in World Cup qualifying in October 2025, four months after Croatia had won 5-1 at home in the same campaign. The two European Championship meetings, in 2021 and 2016, both ended in draws. Czechia will need their first win over Croatia in the sample at the Opus Arena to move level with them in the table.
Croatia sit third in Group 3 on three points, with Czechia bottom without a point. A Czechia win would take them to three points, level with Croatia, while a Croatia win would move them to six.
