Expecting a Close Contest with a Spanish Victory

Spain have not lost in normal time for an impressive 39 games. Their recent 3-2 victory over England was marked more by England’s defensive lapses than any fault of Spain. In Seville, the match is expected to be more controlled. Croatia will likely adopt a deeper defensive stance as they continue to rebuild, which should lead to a steadier game.

A Spain win looks probable but backing them outright offers limited value due to short odds. Matches involving both teams rarely see high scoring; only two of Spain’s last eleven games had four or more goals, and Croatia share that same record. Similarly, just two of Croatia's previous eleven matches went above 3.5 goals.

Backing Spain to win while the total goals stay under 3.5 offers better value, priced at odds-against around 11/10, implying roughly a 48% chance of success.
