England supporters will believe that football is coming home after reaching their first overseas final, with the Three Lions having ridden their luck to navigate their way past Slovakia, Switzerland and Netherlands. They needed a late Jude Bellingham equaliser to force extra-time against the former, while they were awarded a fortunate penalty against the Dutch.
However, they are the betting outsiders to beat Spain on Sunday. Southgate is likely to field the same line-up that started the semi-final, with Bukayo Saka and Phil Foden shining against the Netherlands although England might spend plenty of the match without the ball when facing opponents who have shone brightly throughout the tournament.
La Roja finished top of Group B after winning their three matches before putting Georgia to the sword. They then scored an extra-time winner against Germany before coming from behind to beat the French. They play an exciting brand of football, with a talented midfield triumvirate operating in front of Fabian Ruiz and Rodri.
However, Spain have conceded in their past three matches and perhaps we can see England serve it up against their formidable opponents. Finals are rarely entertaining affairs and the Euro 2024 final betting odds suggest that a low goal count could be on the cards. In theory, the Spanish should prove too strong but the Three Lions appear to have luck on their side.
