SPAIN VS GREECE PREDICTION

The margin of defeat for both Spain and Greece in their respective opening group fixtures was less than ten points, underlining the fact that neither are far away from pulling things together. Spain conceded six more points, 92 against Australia compared Greece’s 86 vs Canada and the latter will want to try and capitalise on any defensive instability from Spain.

It’s hard not to see this being a very close encounter that is decided very late in play with the outcome still in the balance at that time. Games like this are where world class proven winners come out to play and show their quality. In Giannis Antetokounmpo, Greece have that player and he should be the lynchpin for his nation in this must-win match. Back Antetokounmpo and Greece to come out the right end of a potential thriller.
