Spain vs England: Euro 2024 Final Prediction Match Details
The stage is set for the final of the 2024 UEFA European Championship tournament as England and Spain prepare to face off in a historic battle at the Olympiastadion in Berlin. The Three Lions will aim to perform better than they did at Euro 2020 on Sunday.
Spain Preview & Form
Spain has had impressive performances on their way to the final of Euro 2024, maintaining an unbeaten streak throughout the tournament. La Roja emerged at the top of their challenging group, winning all three matches against Albania, Croatia, and Italy. In the knockout stage, they easily defeated Georgia 4-1, and in the quarterfinal, they secured a 2-1 victory over the host nation, Germany, with a goal in extra time from Mikel Merino. In the semifinals, Spain came from behind to defeat France 2-1 and progress to the final. Under the guidance of Luis de la Fuente, La Roja plays exceptional football, with an impressive eight-match winning streak.
England Preview & Form
Despite not having their best performance at Euro 2024, England have reached their second successive final following a challenging route. The Three Lions have faced a lot of criticism after every game in the Euro 2024 tournament. They struggled through the group stage but managed to finish at the top of Group C with five points. In the round of 16, they struggled to get a win against Slovakia. In the quarterfinals, the Three Lions advanced to the semifinals by beating Switzerland on penalties, and in the semifinals, they defeated the Netherlands in a dramatic 2-1 victory. Their poor attacking performances have sparked frustration among fans, having scored just seven goals in the tournament so far.

Spain vs England Player to Watch
Spain – Lamine Yamal
Yamal has made history in the last four matches. His stunning equalizer made him the youngest player to ever score at a World Cup or Euros. At 17 years and one day old, he could become the youngest player to feature in a World Cup or European Championship final, surpassing Pele’s record from the 1958 World Cup (17 years, 249 days). So far at Euro 2024, he has three assists, which is the most by any Spaniard in a single edition of the tournament. In Euro 2024, he has had 13 shot involvements following a ball carry (six shots and seven chances created), which is at least three more than any other player.
England – Phil Foden
In the semi-finals, Foden delivered an exceptional performance, taking three shots, hitting the post with a long-range strike, and having another attempt cleared off the goal line. He also successfully completed all 40 of his attempted passes before being substituted for Cole Palmer, who assisted in the Three Lions’ winning goal.
