Spain is looking to make it back-to-back wins when they go against Cyprus, as they continue their aims for qualification in the Euro 2024. These two teams are in the Group A of the group standings, and it was Spain who is at the second spot. Spain sits at the second of the group standings, only having six points, but with fewer games than the team on top. As for Cyprus, they are at the bottom of the group standings, as they have yet to win a single game in the contest. All their four matches ended in loss, which is not good for Cyprus. These two teams already shared eight meetings across all contest, with Spain earning seven wins. This meeting will be on September 13, 2023, at 2:45 AM (GMT+8), with Spain as hosts.
Spain
Spain is aiming to continue their fine form since they won the UEFA Nations League in June. Additionally, they are also from a dominating win, when they met with Georgia on their last match. It was a 7-1 win for Spain, which adds to their confidence as they aim for a better chance for the next round. Alvaro Morata, and Lamine Yamal are two of the most impressive players for the Spanish squad, as both had an amazing performance. In fact, Yamal is the youngest player for Spain to make an appearance, and the their youngest goal scorer. This just proves that the future is indeed bright for Spain, as they have a talented player like him. Moreover, in their last five games, this team was able to record four wins, but suffered one loss.
Marco Asensio, and Dino Olmo already pulled out from the Spanish squad due to their injuries. Moreover, Alejandro Balde is likely to replace Jose Gaya, while Fabian Ruiz will hold his place in the starters.
Cyprus
Cyprus is the opposite of Spain, as they are not doing well recently, suffering a 3-0 loss against Scotland. Moreover, on that match, they already conceded three goals in their first 30 minutes, which is one of the main reasons of that loss. When going against Spain, this team remains to be in a bad run, failing to score in five of their eight meetings. Additionally, they also conceded 11 goals in their four matches in the qualifying round. It is obvious how much Cyprus is struggling in the contest, considering their current place in the standings. Due to their winless run, where they lost to all their matches, they now sit at the bottom of the group standings.
There are no expected injuries for Cyprus coming into this match, but there will be slight alterations in their starters.
Prediction:
Spain (2.0)
Odds: -0.86
