EURO 2024 heats up when the quarterfinal stage gets underway this weekend, and a heavyweight showdown kicks off the round with host nation Germany taking on an impressive Spain outfit. But, which nation will progress through to the last four?
Before Betting On Spain vs Germany
Hopes of European glory for Germany were pretty low before the start of the tournament this summer after a less than ideal preparation saw bosses throw caution to the wind by appointing Julian Nagelsmann with just under a year to go before the start of the tournament. However, the hosts are well within their rights to believe that a home success could be on the agenda this summer.
Germany topped Group A in professional fashion after winning two of their three group matches, with their only dropped points coming in their final clash with Switzerland when top spot had already been assured. A huge performance was required in Dortmund in the previous round, with Germany eventually edging to a 2-0 success over Denmark on a thrilling night of action.
However, Spain will likely kick off this quarterfinal showdown as the favorites in the betting after progressing through the tournament very impressively. The national side won all three of their group games in Group B, and they have conceded just two goals in their four outings so far at the EUROs.
Another dominant showing was displayed in the previous round, as Spain came back from a goal down to secure a 4-1 success over Georgia in Cologne. Spain breezed through the gears in the second period, netting three goals in the final 40 minutes. The victory marked the first time since EURO 2012 that Spain had won a knockout stage match at a major tournament in normal time.
Spain vs Germany Head to Head
Spain and Germany have an esteemed international history, previously clashing at the 2022 World Cup with the nations playing out a 1-1 draw. Spain have gone four without defeat against Germany, with their only win coming in the form of a 6-0 success in November 2020.
