Spain vs France Preview

Spain

Spain have been the football pick of the tournament so far at the UEFA EURO 2024 tournament. Luis de la Fuente’s men have been in full flow, winning all their matches en route to the semi-final and the cusp of a final.

They won all three matches in the group stage, beating Croatia (3-0), Italy (1-0), and Albania (1-0). They then roundly beat Georgia 4-1 in the round of 16 and, after defeating hosts Germany 2-1 in the quarter-final clash.

Luis de la Fuente will look to retain his side’s impressive form, which has seen them score 11 goals and concede just twice in the tournament so far. Their solidity and goal threat combine to devastating effect, and they will look to wield it against France on Tuesday.

Our expert soccer predictions forecast more of the same from Spain as they aim to make it into the final.

France

France have been panned by pundits and fans alike after a series of unimpressive performances at the Euros. They have reached the semi-finals without scoring a goal from open play.

Last time out, when they faced Portugal on Friday in the quarter-final, France were uninspiring in penetrating and creating chances despite their array of stars and creative players available to gaffer Didier Deschamps.

Kylian Mbappe’s form has especially been a cause for concern for Le Bleus. The new Real Madrid forward has failed to capture his best self at the Euros, contributing to France’s uninspiring performances.

Didier Deschamps will need to reload his side if they are to regain their attacking spark and pose a threat to the free-flowing La Roja on Tuesday.

Spain vs France Head-to-Head Statistics 

The head-to-head statistics make for an even reading between the two sides. In 13 meetings between these two European powerhouses, Spain have prevailed five times to France’s six wins, with two matches ending in a draw.

In a more recent head-to-head reading, Spain has the edge in their last five meetings, with three wins to France’s one and one match ending in a draw. France won their latest meeting 1-2, striking a psychological edge ahead of Tuesday’s semi-final clash.

Tuesday’s match is likely to be tightly contested and close once again in keeping with recent trends when the two sides meet.

Spain vs France Player Focus 

Spain

Spain duo Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Norman will miss the semi-final clash against Le Bleus. Le Normand received a yellow card in the 29th minute of their clash against Germany, which means the Real Sociedad defender will be barred from playing against France on Tuesday.

Real Madrid’s Carvajal received a yellow card in the 100th minute of the clash against Germany, which means the fullback will be unavailable. Another player facing a fitness race is Pedri, who was substituted in the early stages of the 2-1 win against Germany after a heavy challenge from Toni Kroos.

Football bet predictions on 22Bet indicate that the midfield will be pivotal to Spain’s ability to control possession, and Manchester City’s Rodri will, once again, be the key cog for Luis de la Fuente and his charges’ chances of beating France.

France

Le Bleus will have significant doubts about the fitness and availability of Antoine Griezman after the clash against Portugal last Friday. However, they will have the benefit of a largely fit squad to choose them, which will hand them an edge when facing a depleted Spanish side.

N’Golo Kanté will be crucial for France as they look to break down, disrupt Spain’s rhythm, and carry out fast attacks. In the final third, Mbappé will need to rediscover his form if France are to stand a chance against Spain.

Spain vs France Tactical Analysis 

This match will boil down to a disciplined and solid French force against an exciting, front-foot Spain.

Our EURO 2024 tips indicate that Spain will control possession and the rhythm, whereas France will be pragmatic but retain a robust attacking threat on the counter.

Spain vs France Prediction 

  • Football pick: A draw in regulation time
  • Odds: 2.83 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Spain 0-0 France

While Spain have been an exciting, goal-scoring, and front-foot attacking side, France have been the opposite.

Tuesday will see an exciting side come up against an immovable object. This will make for a contrasting viewing with significant tactical jostling. However, France have the robustness and solidity to resist a depleted Spanish side, thus bolstering the likelihood of a draw.
