Spain vs Saudi Arabia Prediction

All four of the teams in Group H are tied with one point, so this is a big game for each side. Spain was very disappointed with their draw in their first game and they need to do a better job of finishing in the final third. Saudi Arabia nearly got three points against Uruguay, but they couldn’t hold the lead late. Spain is the better team by a wide margin, but they have had issues scoring over their last four games. Spain should win this game, but I think it will be low scoring. Take under 3.5 goals here.
