Spain vs. Portugal Tips & Quotas, 04.06.2021 – 19:30
On Friday evening, 4 June 2021 at 19:30, the Spanish and Portuguese national teams will enter the hot phase of the European Championship with a friendly match at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid. Furia Roja will meet Sweden, Poland and Slovakia at EURO 2021 in Group C and will be a clear favourite in the preliminary round. The reigning European champion has caught a group of hammers and is dueling with world champions France, Germany and Hungary for two final eighteen tickets. An EM favourite will therefore have to return home after the group phase.

Luis Enrique’s national team played their last international match against Kosovo at home on 31 March this year, winning 3-1. This puts the Iberians on full course in the World Cup qualification. Dani Olmo (34th), Ferran Torres (36th) and Gerard Moreno (75th) scored. In the meantime, Besar Halimi scored the goal in the 70th minute. After a mixed opening match against Greece in their own four walls, Georgia scored a 2-1 away victory. Sweden is also part of the quarrelsome group and is the strongest competitor. However, the games against the Tre Kronor are still pending. Before that, they will meet at the final round of the European Championships.
The Scandinavians were also group opponents of the Spaniards in the European Championships qualification and were able to score a 1-1 in Sweden. The first leg at the Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid clearly won the Furia Roja (3-0). In the ten qualifying matches Spain remained unbeaten (eight wins, two draws). Both point losses occurred in the foreign country. Before the draw in Sweden, Norway also scored only 1:1. The triple European champion celebrated the highest victories in the last two days at home against Malta (7:0) and Romania (5:0).
Captain and real Madrid star Sergio Ramos will be missing injured against Portugal and will also miss the European Championships. Dani Olmo of the Bundesliga team RB Leipzig, on the other hand, is in Spain’s 24-man European Championship squad.

The Selecao has caught a supposedly simple group in the World Cup qualifying round and is also on course for Qatar 2022 with seven points from the first three games. With a 1-0 home win against Azerbaijan, the group phase started at the end of March. This was followed by two away games in Serbia (2-2) and a 3-1 victory in Luxembourg. The international match in Stade-Josy-Barthel in Luxembourg was the last to date for Fernando Santos’ national team. After a 0-1 deficit by Gerson Rodrigues after half an hour, the favourite struck back at the psychologically good time and scored a 1-1 equaliser in the second half (45th +2, Diogo Jota). Five minutes after the break tea, superstar Cristiano Ronaldo scored a 2-1 lead (50th) before Joao Palhinha scored a 3-1 final per capita in the final phase (80th).
The European Championship qualifying was second (17 points) behind group winner Ukraine (20 points). Although the European champion only lost the guest game in Ukraine (1:2), the first leg of the group games against Ukraine could not be won either (0:0). Portugal celebrated the highest victories against Lithuania (5:1 and 6:0). The Selecao also had to face Luxembourg two years ago and twice fulfilled the mandatory task (2:0 and 3:0).
With superstar Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus Turin, Portugal is once again betting on a successful EURO like 2016 in France with the title win in the final against the host (1-0 A.D.). In addition to CR7, coach Santos also appointed cup winners Raphael Guerreiro (Borussia Dortmund) and Andre Silva (Eintracht Frankfurt) to the 26-member national squad. The former Munich Renato Sanches of the French champion OSC Lille is also present. Most players come from the English Premier League (9). Three of them are Manchester City, most of them from the Wolverhampton Wanderers (4). The Portuguese champion Sporting Lisbon represents three kickers.

Between the national teams Spain and Portugal a good and tactically challenging friendly is to be expected. The two nations met on a friendly level in Portugal as early as October 2020, when they separated without goals. Furia Roja and Selecao each scored seven points this year in the World Cup qualification and thus started the European Championship year in a similar way. The daily form will decide the test kick. We don’t expect many goals and, due to the home advantage, we’re predicting a close victory for the Enrique elf.
No easy game and even harder to make a tip prognosis. Nevertheless, in this international game we tend to predict the 3-way bets on Spain wins, where betting odds wave beyond the 2 mark. Alternatively, you can also consider the Under 2.5 Goals bets. This sports betting tip wins if there are no more than 2 hits in the total in the match.
