Is Croatia vs France on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Nations League quarter-final

Croatia and France clash in a repeat of the 2018 World Cup final as the first legs of the Uefa Nations League quarter-finals get underway.

Zlatko Dalic’s side came close to Nations League glory in 2023, succumbing to Spain in a 5-4 defeat on penalties.

France are the top-ranked European nation in the world currently, behind only Argentina in the Fifa world rankings.

And Didier Deschamps now has an enviable amount of talent to call upon, with an in-form Kylian Mbappe back on the road to USA, Canada and Mexico.

Luka Modric, still going strong at 39 years of age, proved decisive the last time these sides met in 2022 with the Checkered Ones triumphing 1-0 thanks to the Real Madrid star’s penalty. Here’s everything you need to know about the match.
