England will not have supporters present at their Nations League match against Croatia on October 3. This follows sanctions imposed on Croatia due to crowd trouble during last year's Nations League quarter-final against France. As part of the punishment, Croatia must play their upcoming home game against England without an audience, while away matches are restricted to no travelling fans. The Croatian Football Federation confirmed these measures as they prepare for the match. England began their Nations League campaign recently, losing to Spain and securing a victory over Czech Republic. After facing Croatia, England will play the Czech Republic again on October 6.
