Czech Republic vs Spain Prediction and Pick
Spain go into the match as overwhelming favorites. In their last 5 matches between the two teams, Spain have won 4, and drew 1. The Czechs have been in good form recently, but not as good as Spain who have won 4 out of their last 5 games. Czech Republic will be without star man Patrik Schick . We think this absence will play a pivotal role in the outcome of the game.
On paper Spain have the much better team. Unless there is an upset, Spain should win this game.
