With the disappointment of their last-16 elimination from Russia 2018 barely forgotten, Spain will aim to quickly put such failure behind, and look towards bettering their last-time finish this time around.

Since their historic feat at the Euro 2004, Greece have failed to meet expectations, failing to qualify for the European Championship for the second time in a row. In the face of this decline, Greece even failed to qualify for 2018 World Cup.

Spain vs Greece Team News

Spain's last outing was a 6-0 drubbing of fellow heavyweights Germany last November. Germany were reduced to a total of two shots as the hosts asserted their dominance in this entertaining match. However, the highlight of this game was the sensational hat-trick of budding star Ferran Torres, handing Spain a well-deserved victory over the Germans.

This victory sealed their first-place finish in League A Group 4 of the Nations League, and subsequently, La Roja have a semi-final date with old rivals Italy next autumn. With a final spot up for grabs, it's going to be an interesting watch as both sides look to reignite their old rivalry.

Very much like the Italians, Spain's squad is going through some phase of revitalization, donning new faces and young talents who would be buzzing to make an impression in the qualifiers, and perhaps, secure a place in the European Championship squad for starters.

With the Euros to look forward to in the summer, Luis Enrique will urge his side to build momentum as they have another runout in the European competition. This time out, the three-time European champions will hope to improve on their embarrassing last-16 finish in 2016.

In their last fixture, Greece were held to a goalless stalemate by Slovenia at Georgios Kamara Stadium. Despite being in charge of proceedings from start to finish, the Greeks were unable to translate their large spell of dominance into goals. As the clock wound down, in their search for an opening, and perhaps, preventing one, Greece's Hatzidiakos was sent off in the 90th minute.

Despite going unbeaten in League C Group 3 in the Nations League, the Greeks missed out on promotion into League B. A record of three wins and three draws was not enough for them to pip Slovenia to the top spot of Group 3.

Eight years after being knocked out of the 2014 World Cup on penalties by Costa Rica, Ethniki seek a return to the world's biggest footballing stage. Securing a favourable result against Spain will be the perfect headstart to their qualification campaign, as tricky fixtures against Sweden take the shine off their chances of making it to Qatar in 2022.

Spain vs Greece Predictions

Spain are on track to claim their tenth successive victory on their turf - highlighting their dominance in home fixtures. In fact, La Roja have conceded just one goal during this period.

Greece, during their Nations League campaign, put on a show of defensive strength, conceding just once in six group matches. However, three of those matches ended in a goalless stalemate - underlining their struggles in front of goal.

Given their lack of cutting edge, it is hard to see how the Greeks will hurt Spain. Hence, we have our wager on Spain to come out tops in this fixture, whilst conceding in the process.
