#BinancePickAndWin In this World Cup quarterfinal, Spain has the bigger chance of winning. Spain is fully healthy, with an average age of just 24.7 years—plenty of stamina and excellent squad depth. The team plays a high line and uses possession-based football as their style. Their average possession rate is over 64%. In midfield, the Rodri–Pedri pairing can effectively control the tempo, while the back line has kept a clean sheet so far. Overall, their attack-and-defense system is extremely mature.
By contrast, for Belgium, their main defensive midfielder, Onana, is injured and ruled out, which causes a significant drop in the midfield’s interception intensity. Their defense is also severely aged, making it very likely to collapse physically in the second half. Although they have counterattacking threats from De Bruyne and Doku, and Courtois’s line-saving skills, it’s difficult for them to withstand Spain’s sustained pressure for the whole match.
In their recent head-to-heads, Spain are unbeaten in 8 meetings with 7 wins and 1 draw—giving them a huge psychological advantage. Considering tactical restraint and fitness levels, Spain are expected to control the game and are likely to edge out victory in regular time to advance.
