Germany (Women) vs. Spain (Women): Match Prediction
In this European Championship, Germany has scored in every match. The team consistently performs well in attack, having scored in their last 15 European Championship matches and 15 previous games across all competitions. In head-to-head encounters with Spain, Germany has also been effective, scoring in 6 of 7 matches, including a 2-0 victory in the last Euros.
Spain is a team with a strong attacking model, so they are unlikely to play cautiously in defense. This, in turn, will create space for the opponent's attacks. Meanwhile, Spain often concedes, allowing opponents to score at least once in 14 of their last 20 European Championship games and in 10 of their last 12 matches across all competitions.
Considering all this, my prediction: Germany Women's National Team Individual Total Over 0.5
