Spain vs England

Spain-vs-England-euro2024-finalSpain take on England at the Olympiastadion in Berlin for the Euro 2024 Final on Sunday night. The Spanish have had a near-perfect record at the tournament, only failing to beat hosts Germany in the quarter-finals within the regulation 90 minutes. They’re also the tournament’s top goalscorers and, in Dani Olmo, have the leading player to land the Golden Boot. Luis de la Fuente’s side has had a tough route to this final, playing and beating Croatia, Italy, Germany and France. They’ve been by far the most impressive team and have a teenage sensation in Lamine Yamal in their ranks.

England can consider themselves somewhat fortunate to have reached a second consecutive Euros final. Gareth Southgate’s men were on the easier side of the draw and their biggest test was their semi-final with the Netherlands. Xavi Simons fired the Dutch in front, but a contentious penalty won and taken by Harry Kane, levelled proceedings. It looked for all the money in the world that the game was destined for extra time and even penalties until substitutes Cole Palmer and Ollie Watkins linked up to win it late on for the Three Lions.

Unsurprisingly, Spain are the favourites to win this in regular time. However, England have shown that they can really dig deep and defend when they need to and that defence is backed by Jordan Pickford, arguably the tournament’s best keeper. This Spain team are by no means invincible, and England does have some quality, so we’re going for the draw and a punt on the 1-1 scoreline. Two of England’s three knockout games have gone to extra time, and with Pickford, they’ll fancy a shootout, so we’re backing the Three Lions to win via penalties. Dani Olmo to score anytime is the final tip for this.
