Cyprus vs Spain Predictions

• Cyprus have lost by at least four goals in each of their last three games.
• Spain have only conceded one goal in their last five matches.
• Cyprus have lost 4-0 in each of their last two matches.

La Roja eye Group A top spot

Spain secured qualification to Euro 2024 during the last international break but still have some work to do if they want to wrap up top spot in Group A.

La Roja have won five of their six qualifiers and lead second-place Scotland on goal difference heading into the penultimate round of fixtures. They should have few problems taking another three points against rock-bottom Cyprus.

Cyprus set for another thrashing

The hosts have lost all seven of their qualifiers and scored just two goals in the process. They lost 6-0 in Spain in September and could be in line for another heavy defeat on Thursday.

They have lost by at least four goals in each of their last three matches and haven’t scored a goal since June. They come up against a Spain side that have conceded just once in their last five matches and beat Georgia 7-1 away from home in September, following that with their 6-0 thrashing of Cyprus in Granada.

Backing Luis Enrique’s side to cover a -3 handicap looks good value, while a third-successive 4-0 defeat for Cyprus stands out as a solid correct score prediction.
