We went with Spain to claim outright glory at the European Under-21 Championship and are sticking with them to edge out Portugal in Tuesday’s crucial pool-stage game.
Both teams enjoyed convincing opening victories on Saturday, against Macedonia and Serbia respectively, but we just feel La Roja are slightly superior in every department.
This should be a cracking contest, though, so let’s kick off our Portugal U21 vs Spain U21 betting tips by taking 29/10 for the favourites to oblige and both teams to score.
Portugal were runners-up in this tournament two years ago and showed they mean business again when beating Serbia 2-0 over the weekend.
Goncalo Guedes headed them in front and Bruno Fernandes clinched all three points with a late strike after a delightful assist by Bayern Munich’s Renato Sanches.
Euro 2016 young player of the tournament Sanches had started on the bench but looked a class act when coming on just before the hour mark.
He said: “We are focused, we are thinking game by game and we want to give our best and win. We have plenty of options in our squad. I only have to do my job and things will run smoothly on the pitch.”
With attacking talent available to both managers, 9/10 for over 2.5 goals in the game stands out from the Portugal U21 vs Spain U21 odds.
Spain lifted this trophy in 2011 and 2013 and appear to be going all out for another triumph after naming a strong squad and starting out with a 5-0 demolition of Macedonia.
Fresh from scoring in the Champions League final, Marco Asensio hit a hat-trick over the weekend, with Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez and Everton winger Gerard Deulofeu also on the mark.
La Roja coach Albert Celades has vowed to stay focused, commenting: “People make us favourites but that means nothing. It doesn’t win you games, the only thing is the effort, the commitment, the organisation and the quality.”
Asensio scored in Spain’s 4-0 success against Portugal in the 2015 European Under-19 Championship and can help them prevail 2-1, 3-1 or 4-1 here, with 15/4 available for that multiple correct score combination.
