Spain vs Croatia Predictions
Spain is a team well-versed in managing matches in this type of tournament. It is not purely luck that has seen the team win the tournament so many times in recent years, and they will be up against arguably the weakest team in the quarter-finals. Therefore we see Spain as the clear favourites to win this match.
Spain’s attacking style could afford them many chances in this match against a Croatian team who have been struggling with their defence and conceded a lot of goals.
