Spain are slight favourites against England, analysts say
July 14th in Berlin In the final match of Euro 2024, the Spanish national team will play against the English national team. According to bookmaker experts, Spain are slight favourites against England.
Spain’s chances of winning the Euro 2024 final are valued at 1×2.61. The odds of England winning are 1×3.5. The chance that the main time final match of Euro 2024 Spain – England will end in a draw – 1×2.92.
Whatever anyone says, the final will see the two best teams of the European Championship meet. Spain and England have not lost a single match in Germany, and the Three Lions have not lost in regulation time in Euro for 13 matches in a row. Yes, Spain’s tournament grid was much more difficult, but this is a question of coincidence and, perhaps, strategy.
Thus, Spain is in the playoffs with Georgia, Germany and France. England knocked out Slovakia, Switzerland and the Netherlands. At the same time, both teams missed in each playoff match, although Spain got through the group with their goal intact. It is not surprising that the probability “Both teams to score in Euro final” bookmakers estimate at 1×2.14. Probability “total in the match Spain – England over 2.5” – 1×2.66.

If we rely only on visual impressions, then Spain looks clearly preferable: England played brightly in Germany for only 45 minutes – the first half of the match with the Netherlands. On the other hand, the Three Lions have never met a top team at Euro 2024, and in matches with strong teams they added strength at the right moment.
In terms of quality and depth of the squad, England looks preferable. As, incidentally, in assessing the team’s experience: for the British, the current Euro final is the second in the last three years; Spain last played in the decisive match of the European Championship in 2012. Each of the teams has young stars: Yamal for Spain, Bellingham for England. Bookmakers estimate the probability of Yamal scoring in the match at 1×4.5. Chance Bellingham’s goal odds are 1×5.
It is worth noting the character of England. The Three Lions have come back three times in the play-offs, twice snatching victory in injury time. The likelihood that Bookmakers estimate the last goal in regular time of the match to be scored after the 75th minute at 1×2.39. Chance that “England not to lose or to win by one goal” – 1×1.79.
