Spain vs Georgia Preview
Spain
Spain have been impeccable so far at EURO 2024. They are the only side to have won all three matches and play convincing football. As a result, many experts see them as one of the main favourites of the tournament.
Luis de la Fuente’s team are now on a streak of five victories. Before the start of the European Championship, they beat Northern Ireland and Andorra. Under their new head coach, Spain have been a dominant side.
In their last match against Albania, Spain rested almost every player from the starting XI. They will approach the clash against Georgia with more energy and try to seize the initiative from the first minute.

Georgia
Georgia are the main discovery of Euro 2024. It’s not just about the victory over Portugal; Willy Sagnol’s team looked cheerful and energetic in all three games of the tournament.
Their match against Turkey was more or less equal despite Georgia losing 1-3. In the game against the Czech Republic, they were the inferior side but still managed to draw. The Georgians played exemplary football against the Portuguese this week and won deservedly.
Georgia are through to the knockouts in their first-ever Euros.
They did it by defeating Portugal 2-0.

As a result, Georgia surprised the experts who thought they would not advance to the playoffs. However, they now face a difficult test. Spain are the only team in the tournament to win all three matches without conceding a single goal. Thus, Kvaratskhelia and his teammates have a tough task ahead.

Spain vs Georgia Player Focus
It’s difficult to point out a particular player in Spain, as the whole team played perfectly during the group stage. Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal are two starlets playing on both flanks, and they have demonstrated their skills fantastically.
Alvaro Morata, the team captain, has also had a great tournament. He scored in the first match and contributed to every game.
Rodri and Fabian Ruiz have dictated the tempo in the midfield. Due to their class and style, they will have an advantage over Georgia’s midfielders.
In the upcoming fixture, a lot will depend on the performance of Giorgi Mamardashvili. The Georgian goalkeeper made a total of 20 saves in three matches, some of which can easily be included in the best saves of the tournament.

Georges Mikautadze is the leading scorer with three goals to his name. The France-born striker is in perfect form and he will surely aim for another productive performance against Spain.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia finally broke his goalscoring drought. He netted the ball perfectly in Diogo Costa’s goal in the 2nd minute of the match. Having scored against Spain twice already, the opponents know he is a dangerous footballer.
Spain vs Georgia Tactical Analysis
Spain usually play with a 4-3-3 formation and are unlikely to change their approach in the match against Georgia. With two reactive wingers and powerful midfielders, they will use every possibility to contain Georgia’s fast attackers.
Georgia, on the other hand, have actively used a 3-5-2 formation, with defence playing a key role. Their tactics will likely feature building the gameplay around counterattacks and maintaining solidity in defense.
Spain vs Georgia Prediction
- Football pick: Spain to Win (-1.5) Handicap
- Odds: 1.66 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Spain 3-1 Georgia
In recent years, the national teams of Spain and Georgia have often played against each other. So far, the statistics look disappointing for the Crusaders. For instance, they conceded seven goals in September 2023 during the Euro 2024 Qualifiers. The return match, taking place in Spain, also ended with La Furia Roja winning 3-1.

Now Luis de la Fuente’s men are the undisputed favourites, despite all the passion, drive, and courage of the Georgian team. Of course, it is still one match, but Spain have all the resources to beat their opponents. Therefore, our EURO 2024 betting tip is a victory for Spain with a handicap (-1.5) in the upcoming meeting.
Spain vs Georgia Betting Tip
- Football Pick: Both teams to score
- Odds: 2.49 (22Bet)
The Spanish national team are the only Euro 2024 team that not only did not lose a single point but also did not concede a goal in the group stage. They won all three matches in the preliminary stage with clean sheets, including against the reigning champions Italy.
Playing against the debutants of the tournament, Furia Roja look like the undisputed favourite. Willy Sagnol’s team has already made history twice: first by qualifying for Euro 2024 and second by beating Portugal to reach the Round of 16.
