Blues beckon for Les Bleus
Spain are favourites to win Euro 2024 after producing some accomplished performances at the finals but France have been way off the pace and could be heading home after this semi-final showdown between the European heavyweights in Munich.
Favourites Spain dumped out tournament hosts Germany with a 2-1 win after extra time last Friday but they were in control of the clash until Florian Wirtz’s late equaliser and they should be too strong for a toothless France side.
Luis de la Fuente’s men are on a fantastic run of 12 wins from their last 15 matches and they have been purring in this competition, bagging 11 goals in five straight wins.
France, however, have scored just three times, Kylian Mbappe converting a penalty in the 1-1 draw with Poland and own goals by Maximilian Wober of Austria and Jan Vertonghen of Belgium earning them 1-0 wins in both those matches.
Didier Deschamps’ side have been well below par and his tactics haven’t helped. He will set up his side not to lose this contest and that could be to the benefit of Spain, whose strength is out wide.
They could eventually find a way through a packed French defence, so backing a Spain win looks the best bet.
Spain vs France tip 1: Spain to win @ 7/4 with BetMGM
Patience can pay for Spain
Spain had to be patient in the win over Germany and they may have to play a waiting game against France too, so it may pay to expect this match to be goalless at the break.
Dani Olmo broke the deadlock in the 51st minute against the tournament hosts and France will also look to keep things tight for as long as possible.
Four of France’s five matches at Euro 2024 have been level at half-time and that sequence could be extended in Munich, with Spain nicking a victory in the second period.
Spain vs France tip 2: Draw-Spain double result @ 5/1 with BetMGM
Ruiz ready to strike
Fabian Ruiz plays his club football for Paris St-Germain and he will face several of his past and present team-mates tonight, so he has an added incentive to play a starring role.
Ruiz has already had a big say in Spain’s progress with two goals in the competition and the all-action midfielder is a huge price to make his mark with another.
The PSG man loves to make late runs into the box but he also likes to have a pop from distance and that may also be a way to break the French resistance.
Ruiz has had 13 attempts at goal in these finals and he has gone very close to more goals with several of those chances. He is a genuine contender to get on the scoresheet in Munich and is a competitive leg in a three-way bet builder.
Combine a Ruiz goal with under 1.5 total France goals and one or both teams failing to score in the first half. France’s last four fixtures have been scoreless at half-time, while two of Spain’s last four have been goalless at the break.
Spain vs France tip 3: Bet builder – Under 1.5 total France goals, one or both teams not to score in the first half, Fabian Ruiz to score @ 14/1 with BetMGM
