Spain vs. Netherlands
Doubting Spain’s offense in the Round of 16 was a mistake. Against a Swiss side that had yet to give up a goal at the World Cup, Spain put on a clinic, scoring five goals on their way to an easy victory. Perhaps the embarrassing performance against Japan is exactly what Spain needed to kick-start their tournament.
On Thursday, they will face a tough opponent in the Netherlands. The Dutch have scored in every game this tournament, and they handled South Africa with ease in the Round of 16. However, they have not had much success against Spain of late. In their last two meetings, the Netherlands have failed to score. Those games were only friendlies, but it still could be a sign of problems for the Netherlands in this round.
Spain learned a lot about themselves in their loss to Japan. While the Netherlands has the talent to score in this game, Spain should have no problem winning this one in regular time.
Bet: Spain Moneyline (-120)
