The Spanish team faces Euro 2024 with great enthusiasm and with a very young squad. After an impeccable qualifying phase, Luis de la Fuente’s men arrive at the tournament with the label of a great team. The first rival will be Croatia, a team that is always tough and has players of the caliber of Modric or Gvardiol. A match that looks exciting and in which Spain will seek to get off to a good start on its path to winning the second consecutive European Championship.
Below, five predictions for the clash between La Roja and the Balkans:
The speed and overflow of the Catalan, together with the experience and quality of the center of the Real Madrid player, will be key to generating danger in the Croatian defense.
The Manchester City midfielder is the beacon of balance in Spain’s game. His ability to recover balls, distribute the game and initiate transitions make him a fundamental piece for the national team.
The Atleti striker has specialized in this type of shots and his scoring instinct will be important to open the scoring against a Croatian defense that is not distinguished by its aerial solidity. Everyone trusts him.
The defensive solidity of the team, with Laporte and Le Normand as the centre-back pairing, and the experience of Unai Simón between the sticks, suggest that La Roja will keep its clean sheet.
The very young midfielder of FC Barcelona is th
e great jewel of the Spanish team. His vision of the game, his technical quality and his ability to break lines will be essential to control the pace of the game and generate scoring chances. It seems like he has put the injuries behind him.
