Spain v Poland betting tips: Pressure on after opening flops

Poland were on top when Karol Linetty cancelled out a first-half Slovakia strike but had Grzegorz Krychowiak sent off after 69 minutes and paid the price when Milan Skriniar struck a superb winner.

Poland coach Paulo Sousa admitted his team “need to be better and show more courage” but they go into the game as 17/2 underdogs, with the draw 19/5.

The need for points for both teams could lead to an open match and both teams to score is available at 21/20 while over 2.5 goals is 8/11.

Spain v Poland head-to-head

Spain have won eight of the 10 matches these teams have played although the only competitive fixtures were in qualifying for the 1960 European Championship.

The most recent friendly was in 2010 ahead of Spain going on to win the World Cup that summer and La Roja emphasised their quality with a 6-0 victory.

Spain to win and over 2.5 goals this weekend can be backed at 21/20 while Spain are the same price to be leading at both half-time and full-time.

Previous XI

Poland: Szczesny, Bednarek, Rybus, Glik, Bereszynski, Linetty, Krychowiak, Klich, Zielinski, Jozwiak, Lewandowski.

Key battles

Robert Lewandowski’s poor goalscoring record at major tournaments continued as he was kept quiet by Slovakia and he faces an even tougher evening against a Spain defence containing the likes of Pau Torres and Aymeric Laporte.

Morata will be keen to make up for his misses against Sweden while Moreno could start after ending his fine form for Villarreal this season.

Morata is the 3/1 favourite to open the scoring while Lewandowski is 11/5 to find the net at any time.
