Bet £10 get £40 in free bets with Betway ahead of Croatia vs Ghana

Jun 27, 2026 - 08:30

Croatia and Ghana clash at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on Saturday in a must-win Group L decider for the Chequered Ones. Croatia need three points to guarantee progression, while Ghana can reach the knockouts for the first time since 2010 with just a draw.

With Croatia’s World Cup survival on the line and Ghana one point from the last 32, Betway are offering new customers the chance to net £40 in free bets. Just sign up via our link, deposit £10, then place a £10 qualifying bet at odds of evens or better, and you’ll receive 4 x £10 free bets instantly (two Bet Builders and two Accas).

Croatia have looked a side of two halves in this tournament. Luka Modrić – marking his 200th international appearance against Panama – saw Zlatko Dalić’s side grind out a vital 1-0 win through Ante Budimir’s second-half goal, but the 4-2 opening defeat to England exposed lingering defensive frailties.

Martin Baturina was the standout performer against the Canaleros, completing six dribbles and winning seven fouls – a combination not recorded at a World Cup since Diego Maradona in 1982.

Ghana have been the quiet revelation of the group. Carlos Queiroz – only appointed in April – has instilled a defensive discipline that kept England at bay for 90 minutes despite the Black Stars managing just two shots all game.

A 1-0 win over Panama, settled by Caleb Yirenkyi in the 95th minute, was followed by a performance Queiroz felt deserved more, fuming that “VAR went for a coffee” after Ezri Konsa’s challenge on Prince Kwabena Adu went unpunished.

How to claim £40 in free bets with Betway

Follow our link to Betway and register. Deposit £10 using a debit card, then place a single £10 qualifying bet at odds of evens (2.0) or higher. Once it settles, you’ll receive 4 x £10 free bets immediately (two Bet Builders, min 4 legs at odds 4.0+; two Accas, same min legs/odds). All free bets expire after 7 days.

A superb boost ahead of one of the group stage’s most compelling deciders, where Croatia’s experience and desperation meet Ghana’s extraordinary defensive organisation.

Croatia’s quality to finally impose itself against Ghana’s stubborn resistance

The numbers tell the story for Croatia: a 7-1-0 qualifying record with 26 goals confirms the attacking quality is there, and Andrej Kramarić’s 35 international goals make him one of Europe’s most proven strikers at this level.

Add Mateo Kovačić’s creativity and Ivan Perišić’s experience from the left wing, and Dalić has enough to crack even a defence of Ghana’s calibre. For Modrić, potentially playing his final World Cup game if they fail to deliver, the motivation goes far beyond football.

Ghana will absorb and wait. Queiroz has shown he can frustrate anyone, but one win from the last six and zero first-half shots on target suggests even he will struggle to keep Croatia at bay for the full 90 minutes.

Croatia to win
Under 2.5 goals

This should be a tight affair rather than a spectacle. Ghana’s counter-attacking threat through Antoine Semenyo and Iñaki Williams means they carry a goal threat on the break, but Croatia’s greater motivation and individual quality should ultimately see them through.
