General match analysis
Typ 1X2 after 90 minutes: 1. Spain is the most controlling team of the remaining quarterfinalists: it can take away the opponent's rhythm, reduce the number of transitions and play patiently even with a low score. Belgium looked impressive in the previous round, but the 4-1 result against the USA cannot cover up a structural problem: without Onana, the midfield loses physicality, tackling and space protection from the defenders. De Bruyne and Doku have a high ceiling, but unless they are ready to go full pace from the start, Belgium will struggle to keep the ball under Spain pressure. This looks like a control match, not an exchange of blows. Spain has a greater chance to win low than Belgium to open the match with a series of attacks. Our prediction: 58% for Spain, 25% for draw and 17% for Belgium. Most likely exact score: 1-0. Promotion after the whole match: Spain (73% vs 27%). Status: BET

This looks like a control match, not an exchange of blows. Spain has a greater chance to win low than Belgium to open the match with a series of attacks. The match profile emphasizes control, low blocking and a limited number of clean chances for one side, so a clean sheet for one team is more likely.
