A three days break is on at the UEFA Euro 2020 right now after the quarter finals ended and we’re down to just the final four teams. On 7th July 2021, we have Semi Final 1 between two teams who you would’ve imagined as the pre-tournament favourites. We’re talking about Italy on one hand that hasn’t lost a single international game since late in 2018 and have an unbeaten streak of 25+ games, so they’re a mighty force.
On the other hand is Spain that started the tournament very slowly and you wouldn’t have backed them to do much. However, they’ve come back strong since then, scoring 5 goals in each of their next two games and winning their quarter final against Switzerland 3-1 on penalties. We’re looking at possibly the game of the tournament so far and there’s not much between them, with Italy slight favourites at odds of 2.53 with BetWinner.
Euro 2020 so far
For a team that hasn’t hasn’t lost yet and scored 11 goals in their last 5 games in Euro 2020, the pre-match odds on offer are pretty high value. In fact prior to their Round of 16 game, they have 10 consecutive international outings with a clean sheet but ave conceded once each in the last 2 games. In the last game, Italy threatened on the attacking front a number of times and you can look at a bet of 2+ goals for them today.

On the other hand is Spain who began slowly but their third and fourth game saw 5 goals each, so there’s not going to be a shortage of goals in this game. In the last game, they drew 1-1 with Switzerland before winning in penalties and one thing is for sure is that no goal-keeper is going to get a clean sheet today. Most definitely, we’re going for both teams to score at odds of 2.02 on BetWinner while both to score 2 each is a worthy gamble too!
Italy vs Spain head to head
In 33 games between these two teams over the years, Spain has led 12-9 while another 12 of those games ended in draws. In fact, Spain has been even more dominant in 21st Century games, leading 7-2 head-to-head in 13 games since 2000. However, Italy has led in major world tournaments, leading 4-1 with 4 more games ending in draws.
