Betting Insights
- Spain are the clear 1.29 favorites to win this game and while Austria are at 4.8 on the draw line, they are closer to their opponent's level than that price suggests.
- A smart alternative bet in this game is Both Teams to Score - No at 1.44, which is an odds-on price that suits the way Spain defend and counter.
Prediction
- La Roja are unbeaten in ten, while Austria have won six, drawn two and lost two of their ten games in all competitions, so they are a little behind Spain in terms of the way they perform at their best.
- Spain's defensive record (conceded only three goals in seven home games in all competitions) suggests they can keep this one tight, while Austria's intensity may make them work hard for any breakthrough.
