Euro 2024 Semi-Final: Spain vs France
The stage is set for an epic clash between Spain and France in the semi-finals of the Euro 2024 tournament. Spain, who have arguably been the standout team of the competition, will approach this contest full of confidence after dumping out hosts Germany in the quarter-finals.
La Roja have been installed as the tournament favourites ahead of England, while France have drifted out to 11/4 after some unconvincing performances. Spain are the warm 13/8 favourites to seal their place in Sunday’s final, with France priced at 21/10 and the draw a 2/1 shot.
Our football betting expert has provided his three best predictions and betting tips for this highly anticipated semi-final showdown:
Spain to win @ 13/8 with Betfred
Spain have won 12 of their last 15 matches and have scored 11 goals in their five matches at this tournament. In contrast, France have struggled to find the net, scoring just three times, with only one of those coming from open play. The Spanish defence has also been solid, keeping four clean sheets in their last seven games, and they can put an underwhelming France side to the sword.
One or both teams not to score @ 4/6 with Betfred
Both teams have struggled to find the net consistently in the tournament. France have scored just one goal from open play in their five matches, while Spain have kept four clean sheets in their last seven games. Backing at least one team to fail to score could be a wise choice in this tight semi-final clash.
Fabian Ruiz to score at any time @ 17/2 with Betfred
The Spanish midfielder has been a key contributor, scoring two goals already in the tournament. His late runs from deep and ability to strike from distance could cause problems for the French defence. With the added incentive of playing against several of his Paris Saint-Germain teammates, Ruiz could be the one to break the deadlock in this semi-final tie.
