Slaven Bilić's first spell as Croatia coach ended at Euro 2012, with a defeat by Spain that sent his team home. Fourteen years later he's back in charge, and Spain have beaten his side again, 4-1 in Seville on 29 September.
A week later, Bilić gets a rematch at home: Matchday 4 of League A, Group 3 in the UEFA Nations League, at Stadion Poljud in Split on Tuesday 6 October, with kick-off at 19:45 BST.

I've been a copywriter for almost 10 years now. The job, broadly, is getting people to read things they were fully prepared to scroll past. At 7bet, what I write about is sports and casinos.

Writing Approach
The stuff I’m proudest of is the articles you finish reading and come away actually understanding the game a bit better. I try my hardest to keep my English as plain as possible so that even beginners can grasp the topic.

Featured Work & Quick Facts
Approximate published articles: I must have written more than 800 articles throughout my career – these are a few I particularly enjoyed writing for 7bet.
Education & Languages
- I have a degree in Marketing, Sales and Export Management, which sounds grander than my daily to-do list usually is, but it's how I ended up writing for a living.
- I work in two languages: Italian, my native language, and English, which I'm fluent enough in to argue about football.
