Spain vs Saudi Arabia Prediction | World Cup | 21/06

A vital Group H battle awaits in Atlanta as Spain takes on Saudi Arabia on June 21 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Both sides opened their World Cup campaigns with surprise draws and know that a win in this fixture would significantly boost their chances of advancing to the last 32.

Spain enters the contest frustrated after being held to a goalless draw by Cape Verde. While they dictated the tempo and enjoyed the majority of possession, the European giants struggled to break down a disciplined defence and create high-quality opportunities. Luis de la Fuente's side will now be determined to show a more clinical edge in front of goal against Saudi Arabia.
