Spain vs Brazil Prediction

Spain to win and both teams to score @ 7/2
Over 2.5 goals @ EVS

Team News

The likes of Unai Simon, Dani Carvajal, Rodri and Dani Olmo are likely to be introduced to the starting XI for Spain, after they didn't feature in the defeat to Colombia on Friday.

As for Brazil, there remains doubt surrounding Richarlison's potential involvement, while fellow Premier League stars Ederson and Alisson Becker will remain on the treatment table for this encounter.

Match Odds

Spain are 23/20, implying that they have a 46.5% chance of securing the victory in Madrid, while Brazil are 12/5, or a 29.4% chance, of making it back-to-back wins.

The draw can be backed at 23/10, and if you fancy both teams to score, that is currently priced up at 4/5.

Spain to win and both teams to score @ 7/2

Spain were on a seven-game unbeaten run prior to the surprise defeat to Colombia, and I believe that they will get back to winning ways here, as Luis de la Fuente is expected to name a much stronger line-up.

However, the Spanish have conceded in each of their last three games, and while Brazil lost their previous three outings before emerging triumphant on the Wembley turf on Saturday, La Roja may struggle to contain the likes of Vinicius Jr. and co.

Brazil's 1-0 victory over England marked just their second clean sheet in 13 games, so I'm not expecting them to keep Spain out here either.

Over 2.5 goals @ EVS

Before the defeat to Colombia, Spain managed to claim back-to-back 3-1 victories, and over 2.5 goals has landed in four of their last six encounters.

Brazil's recent affairs have tended to be low-scoring, but I'm expecting a strong Spain side to rack up the scoreline here, and ultimately result in over match 2.5 goals.
