UEFA Euro 2024 Final: Spain v England | Match Preview | Predictions | Fantasy XIs

Just one match remains in UEFA Euro 2024: the final between England and Spain at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

Euro 2024 Final | Spain v England | 12:30 am IST | July 15

Spain will certainly be the favourites for this game. With the incredible talent the team possess in attacking areas, along with the intent shown by manager Luis de la Fuente, they will certainly look to dominate from the first minute. Their young wingers Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams will cherish running at the likes of Kieran Trippier and Kyle Walker in the England defence. 

England may have less of the ball in this match, but their main men have started to come to the party. Phil Foden had a good outing against the Netherlands, while Bukayo Saka has looked threatening throughout the knockouts. Expect the Three Lions to be defensively strong, a facet that has been on display throughout the tournament.

Team News

FC Barcelona midfielder Pedri will not participate in the final after he picked up an injury against Germany in the quarter-final. However, one good news for La Roja is that they will have Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand returning from suspension.

The only major decision Gareth Southgate must make is regarding the left-back position. With Luke Shaw enjoying some minutes in the tournament after a lengthy injury, he may be preferred ahead of Trippier.
