Why Spain 1X for Spain vs Uruguay
We are taking Spain win or draw against Uruguay in the final round of the World Cup group stages. Spain are one of the best attacking sides, but we are not writing off a Uruguay draw.
Spain Attack In Numbers
Spain is up there with Argentina and France as one of the most lethal attacking sides in this World Cup. La Roja are not only unbeaten in the last 12 games, but they have outscored their opponents 11 goals to 2. If one thing is clear, Uruguay are faced with their biggest obstacle yet.
Head-to-head Record
In their 4 previous meetings, Spain have won twice, while the other two matches ended in draws. Uruguay are still searching for their first victory in this fixture, although the head-to-head record also shows they have been capable of holding Spain to stalemates.
Uruguay Might Use A Deep Block
Uruguay are one of the toughest defenses to break down, drawing 5 of their last 6 games by frustrating opponents with a deep block. In the game against Spain, Marcelo Bielsa will likely sit deep and try to protect the central areas, forcing Spain to hold possession without any result.
Verdict
GambleBible's Spain vs Uruguay World Cup prediction is Spain to win or draw. While La Roja should have no shortage of touches in the opposition box, we acknowledge Uruguay are a great defensive unit, and with that, they could limit Spain to under 2.5 goals or no goals at all.
