Croatia vs Spain Best Bet

Spain have employed a high-pressing system at Euro 2020, swarming their opponents and aiming to win the ball back as soon as they lose it.

They face a Croatian side that is lacking youthfulness and pace and Spain look a solid bet at 4/7 with Betfair to suffocate the attacking life out of Croatia and take the win.

Croatia vs Spain Betting Odds

Yes, Croatia reached the World Cup final in 2018 but they are a different side now and could struggle in the attacking third against a young and attack-minded Spanish team. There have been 14 goals scored in the three previous games between these teams so let’s hope for more of the same in Copenhagen.

Croatia To Win Odds

Croatia aren’t a bad team but it will take a monumental effort to contain Spain for the full 90 minutes and that’s reflected in their current odds of 6/1 at William Hill.

Croatia vs Spain Draw Odds

There’s only been one draw in the previous eight matches between this pair but for those expecting a close match up on Monday, the draw is a best price of 11/4 at Betfred.

Spain To Win Odds

Spain had a slow start to the tournament but were impressive against Slovakia in a match they had to win – they will relish taking on a Croatian side that lacks pace and it’s no shock that Spain are the favourites to win at 4/7 with Betfair.
