The UEFA Euro 2024 tournament culminates in a high-profile final this weekend as Spain take on Gareth Southgate's formidable England side at the Olympiastadion Berlin on Sunday. Both teams have talented players at their disposal and are in excellent form going into this game.
Spain vs England Preview
England have come into their own in their last two games and outplayed Ronald Koeman's Netherlands side in the first half of Wednesday's semi-final. The Three Lions have been starved of a trophy on the international stage and have now been presented with an excellent opportunity to end their drought.
Spain have managed their transition brilliantly under Luis de la Fuente and have unearthed another generation of world-class players this year. Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo stunned France with their goals in the semi-final and could be set to replicate their heroics on Sunday.
Spain vs England Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- England have a slight edge over Spain and have won 14 out of the 27 matches between the two teams, as opposed to Spain's 10 victories.
- England have failed to find the back of the net in their last three matches against Spain in major international tournaments, with their last two matches ending in 0-0 stalemates.

Spain vs England Prediction
Spain have been relentless with their attacking play at Euro 2024 but will need to be wary of England's prowess on the counter this weekend. The Spaniards are likely to dominate possession in the final and have plenty of pace on their flanks with Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams in blistering form.
England have powerful weapons in their arsenal and will need the likes of Jude Bellingham, Harry Kane, and Bukayo Saka to play their parts to perfection. Kyle Walker and Luke Shaw will need to maintain a high level of concentration to keep Spain's formidable wingers at bay.
Spain and England have been two of the most consistent teams at Euro 2024 and will need to peak with a trophy at stake on Sunday. Spain have been more impressive throughout the tournament and hold a slight upper hand going into this game. We expect this final to end in a narrow victory for La Roja.
Prediction: Spain 2-1 England
