Recent home/away form

Croatia

Croatia's recent home form has been quite strong, with three wins, two draws, and only one loss in their last six matches. They have managed to keep three clean sheets during this period, showcasing their defensive solidity. Croatia's attack has also been impressive, scoring 12 goals in these six games, averaging 2 goals per game. It's worth noting that they had a particularly high-scoring match against Latvia, winning 5-0 in September 2023. However, their most recent game against Albania in the European Championship ended in a 2-2 draw, suggesting that they may be vulnerable to conceding goals against tougher opposition. Overall, Croatia's home form has been consistent, with a good balance between attack and defense.

Italy

Italy's away form in their last six games has been mixed, with two wins, two draws, and two losses. They have not had any runs of wins or defeats longer than two games. Italy's away games have been relatively low-scoring, with only one game featuring over 2.5 goals (the 3-1 loss against England). The Italians have managed to keep three clean sheets in their last six away matches, conceding an average of 0.83 goals per game. Their goal-scoring record is modest, averaging one goal per game, with a total of six goals scored across the six fixtures.
