Implied from oddsSpain VS Argentina Prediction
Spain and Argentina collide in a blockbuster World Cup final, and this prediction sees Spain's defensive excellence as the likely difference on neutral ground. Spain have been simply outstanding, winning all five of their latest fixtures while conceding a single goal, a run built on a commanding 2-0 win over France in the semi-finals and hard-fought victories against Belgium, Portugal and Uruguay. Argentina, by contrast, have thrilled with fourteen goals in five straight wins, overcoming England, Switzerland, Egypt, Cape Verde Islands and Jordan, but they have also conceded seven times and look the more open of the two. The sides have met only rarely in recent times, with Spain holding the upper hand in those encounters. On this evidence, expect a tense, tactical final in which Argentina's attacking verve is tested by the tournament's tightest defence, and Spain edge towards lifting the trophy.
