What channel is Croatia v England Nations League match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time

England face Croatia on Saturday evening with the Three Lions hoping to build on their midweek Nations League win.

Thomas Tuchel's men lost their League A, Group 3 opener against Spain last weekend despite outplaying them in spells and having a lead, but England bounced back on Tuesday night to beat Czech Republic 2-0 in Prague.

Czech Republic played with 10 men for around 65 minutes after Pavel Sulc's red card and England made their advantage count with Anthony Gordon and Harry Kane netting in the second half.

England are now three points behind Spain with four group games remaining and a win on Saturday in Croatia will keep the pressure on the 2026 World Cup winners.

Croatia beat Czech Republic 2-1 in their opening clash before suffering a 4-1 defeat against Spain in midweek to leave them third in League A, Group 3 based on goal difference.
