Croatia midfielder Nikola Moro believes England is the strongest side in Group L, but Ghana and Panama cannot be underestimated.
The 2022 World Cup semi-finalist will face England in Group L's opener before engaging Panama and Ghana later on.
Ahead of Wednesday's game, Moro - who plies his trade in Italy for Bologna - admits it will be a tough match against England.
"The English have players who play big games, they have intensity and they have exceptional players in every position. As for expectations, the coach was clear, he wouldn't want to repeat himself," he said.
"England is the strongest opponent in the group, but no opponent should be underestimated. They have great quality, the English national team players play with high intensity. There are a lot of players who make a difference, the English are a great team with great individuals," he added.
Croatia head to the tournament after finishing second and third in 2018 and 2022 respectively, and will be hoping to make it a step further.
Meanwhile, the Black Stars arrived in Toronto on Monday evening ahead of their opening game against Panama on Wednesday ahead of the BMO Field.
