Spain vs Ukraine prediction

Ukraine haven’t been perfect defensively and remain without a clean sheet across the tournament so far, but their attacking prowess has made up for that and seven points from a possible nine has led them to this stage. They take on a Spanish side who clutched up when it mattered most, beating Brazil 1-0 in their final group game to make it through.

Ukraine’s offensive quality should see them break through a tough backline that Spain possesses, but the defensive fragilities of Ukraine cannot be ignored either. It would be no surprise to see chances come the way of Spain over the course of 90 minutes and backing both teams to score is a move well worth making.
