AI Analysis
Our Dixon-Coles Poisson model rates this as one-sided. Croatia hold a meaningful Elo rating edge (1908). Expected goals are closely balanced at 0.99 vs 1.03, making the outcome genuinely uncertain. Nigeria's recent run of form (W-D-W-L-W) strengthens the model's lean towards them. Final probabilities: Nigeria 32% · Draw 34% · Croatia 34%.
