Spain vs Austria — AI prediction
Result
Spain 3-0 Austria
Kick-off: 2026-07-02
Spain top Group H (WWDWD, 9 scored, 2 conceded) with dominant metrics — 68.5% possession and 1.75 xG per game — and shut out both Uruguay and Saudi Arabia recently. Austria (DLWW) reached the knockouts but leak goals, shipping 6 in the group including a 3-3 with Algeria and 0-2 to Argentina, with just 3.0 shots on target per game. The gulf in quality points to a comfortable Spain win, though Austria's porous defence keeps a BTTS/over path alive. Spain's clean-sheet strength narrowly favours goals staying manageable.
