We’ve studied the football betting odds for the game, looked at the teams’ recent form and assessed the key stats. Our aim is to find the best possible betting option for this exciting game.

Switzerland have not exactly been the great entertainers of the World Cup so far. Two of their games have finished 0-0, with the other resulting in a drab 2-0 win over a weak Philippines side.

Much will depend on star striker Ramona Bachmann, the PSG forward has just one goal so far, but looks to be the best chance the Swiss have of causing an upset. At the other end of the field, everything appears to be in full working order and the team are yet to concede a goal.

For a team that managed eight goals in the group stages, Spain still have a number of question marks over them. Yes, they did crush Zambia and Costa Rica, but they are two of the weakest teams in the competition. It was the performance against Japan that really sounded the alarm bells. They were comprehensively outplayed all over the pitch and were lucky to escape with only a 4-0 defeat.

Nevertheless, this is still a hugely talented team and player for player they should have more than enough to beat the Swiss. But whether they have the quality to progress any further remains to be seen.

The last three meetings between Switzerland and Spain have seen two Spanish victories and one win for the Swiss. The last game between the sides was at the 2019 Algarve Cup, a game which was won 2-0 by Spain. The last Swiss success was a 4-3 victory at the 2017 Euros.

Our statistical highlights for the game assess both sides' form in the World Cup so far. This gives us key sports betting info on the strengths and weaknesses of both teams.

The sports betting apps have Spain as short priced favourites at around 3/10. The Swiss are huge outsiders at 9/1, with the draw after 90 minutes rated at 18/5.

In our opinion, Spain are far too short in the markets. You’ve only played one good team so far, and that ended in disaster. Yes, they are the better side on paper, but they may find it tough to break down the stubborn Swiss backline which is yet to concede.

In terms of who qualifies, we are inclined to favour Spain. However, it may take longer than 90 minutes to decide this one. As such, we are going to recommend a bet on the draw at 90 minutes.
