Is England v Croatia on TV?
Yes. England v Croatia is live and free to air on ITV1 and STV, with coverage from 19.00 and streaming on ITVX and STV Player. The game starts at 19.45 GMT at Wembley Stadium on Thursday 12 November 2026, in League A of the UEFA Nations League.
England are one point away from the quarter-finals. Thomas Tuchel’s side lost their opener 3-2 to Spain, but have since won three in a row without conceding, beating the Czech Republic 2-0 away, thrashing Croatia 7-0 in Rijeka and then beating the Czechs 3-0 at Wembley.
They are three points behind group leaders Spain and six ahead of Croatia, so a draw here or in Madrid on Sunday will be enough to reach the last eight. England have also been the highest scorers in the competition so far, and Wembley has been a happy hunting ground for them in the Nations League.
Harry Kane will become England’s most-capped men’s player if he makes his 126th appearance, overtaking Peter Shilton. Cole Palmer has been left out again, Marc Guehi is injured, Myles Lewis-Skelly is suspended after two bookings, and Ezri Konsa has been ruled out as he follows an individual training programme. Josh King, James Hill and Jobe Bellingham are the uncapped outfield players in the squad, but Tuchel is unlikely to hand any of them a debut until qualification is secure.
Croatia have had a miserable campaign. They beat the Czech Republic 2-1 in their opener, but have lost three in a row since, going down 4-1 in Spain, suffering the heaviest defeat in their history against England, and then losing 2-1 at home to Spain.
Slaven Bilic’s side are now at serious risk of losing their place in League A, and third place in the group could leave them facing a promotion and relegation play-off.
Ivan Perisic is suspended after being sent off against Spain, and Bilic has lost five more players to injury since naming his squad: Josip Sutalo, Martin Pongracic, Andrej Kramaric, Franjo Ivanovic and Kristijan Jakic. Luka Modric, now 41, keeps the captain’s armband and will win his 207th cap.
Win tonight and England will travel to Madrid on Sunday knowing a victory over Spain would see them top the group.
