Spain

In the quarter-finals, Spain managed to beat a host country team of a big tournament for the first time in their history. Spain opened the score in the beginning of the second half, but Germany equalized in the last minutes of the game. Thus, Spain failed to win within 90 minutes for the first time in this tournament. They scored in extra time, anyway. Spain have reached the quarter-finals for the 4th time in their last 5 tournaments. Spain have an unbeaten run in regular time in their 11 European Championship games (5 wins, 6 draws).

Robin Le Normand and Dani Carvajal will miss the game due to disqualification, while Pedri will miss the semi-final due to an injury.

• Spain have scored the first goal in 10 out of their last 11 official games. Spain to score the first goal – 1/1
• At least 2 goals have been scored in regular time in 8 out of the last 10 European Championship games Spain have played. Over 1.5 – 1/2
• Spain haven’t lost in regular time their last 13 official games (11 wins and 2 draws). Spain to win or Draw – 2/5

France

France still haven’t managed to score a goal (aside from the one scored from the penalty spot), yet they’ve reached the semi-finals. In the quarter-finals, they beat Portugal on penalties (5:3) after a goalless draw. France haven’t lost in regular time their last 16 European Championship games (8 wins, 8 draws). However, they have obvious problems with scoring a goal. France have scored a maximum of 1 goal in 8 out of their last 10 European Championship games. This is going to be the 2nd time that France have reached the semi-finals in the last 6 European Championships.

• France have ended in a draw in regular time 6 out of their last 8 European Championship games. Draw – 37/20
• France have scored at least 1 goal in 8 out of the last 10 official head-to-head games. France Over 0.5 – 9/20

Spain – France Prediction

Both sides failed to win their quarter-final games in regular time. The teams left too many strengths and emotions. It’s going to be even harder now as there’s not enough time to fully recover and a pressure in bigger. The sides are unlikely to perform brightly scoring many goals. The defensive lines of theirs have proved the quality.

Spain have conceded only 2 goals (one of them was an own goal against Georgia) in this tournament. France have conceded only 1 goal, scored from the penalty spot.

A maximum of 2 goals have been scored in regular time in 9 out of the last 11 European Championship games France have played and in 5 out of the last 7 European Championship games Spain have played. And also a maximum of 2 goals have been scored in 3 out of the last 4 official head-to-head games between the sides.

Our prediction is Under 2.5 at 1/2 .
