Tuchel's England Open World Cup On UK Betting Sites
UK betting sites have made England 8/11 favourites with Bet365 to beat Croatia in Dallas tonight, as Thomas Tuchel's side finally begin their World Cup campaign against one of the most experienced sides in international football.
The best football betting sites have priced the Three Lions as the clear favourites, but a 36% implied probability on the draw and a 21% chance for Croatia tell you everything about the size of this opening test.
Croatia at 15/4 carries a level of respect from the bookies that reflects their tournament pedigree, as World Cup finalists in 2018 and semi-finalists again in 2022, with the kind of midfield experience that has consistently outperformed expectations on the biggest stage.
For Tuchel, this is the opening night statement game that defines the early arc of his tenure as England head coach.
Three of the standout betting enhancements right now centre on England captain Harry Kane.
The Tuchel Era Begins In Earnest
Tonight is the moment the Tuchel era stops being a build-up and starts being a tournament.
The German has talked extensively about wanting England to play with the kind of front-foot intensity that defined his Champions League-winning Chelsea side, and a World Cup opener against a technically gifted Croatia side is the perfect early read on whether that approach translates to international football.
Croatia's experience in the centre of the pitch has historically been their tournament edge, and how England's midfield handles that test will likely decide the game.
