England U21 Team News
In the previous round of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship, England comfortably defeated Israel with a score of 0-3. In the 17th minute of the match, they were awarded a penalty, but Morgan Gibbs-White was not accurate with his shot. However, he made up for the missed penalty near the end of the first half by scoring a goal, assisted by Cole Palmer. The same player, Gibbs-White, was also the scorer of the second goal, this time successfully set up by Emile Smith-Rowe. The final result was sealed in the 90th minute with a goal from Cameron Archer.
England finished the group stage as the first-placed team with a perfect nine points, securing victories against Czech Republic, Israel, and Germany. In the quarterfinals, they defeated Portugal with a 1-0 scoreline. Interestingly, they have yet to concede a goal in the tournament, while scoring a total of ten goals.
Max Aarons and Ben Johnson will return for the final match after serving their suspensions in the previous game. Aarons may even feature in the starting lineup instead of Luke Thomas. James Garner is likely to retain his place in the starting lineup, while no other changes are expected in the starting eleven.

Spain U21 Team News
The young national team of Spain outplayed Ukraine in the semifinal match with an impressive score of 5-1. Although Ukraine took the lead in the 13th minute, it was followed by a goal spree from the Spanish side. Abel Ruiz equalized just four minutes later, and Oihan Sancet turned the score in Spain’s favor with a goal in the 24th minute. At the start of the second half, they further increased their lead with a precise strike from Antonio Blanco. They sealed the match with two more goals from Aimar Oroz and Sergio Gomez.
In the group stage, Spain finished as the first-placed team ahead of Ukraine, Croatia, and Romania, all with seven points. However, due to a better goal difference, they secured the top spot. In the quarterfinals, they defeated Switzerland with a 2-1 score, scoring a goal in the closing stages of the first extra time after a goalless regular time. So far in the European Championship, their goal difference stands at 13-4.
All players will be available to coach De la Fuente, and Abel Ruiz and Sergio Gomez are expected to be in the Spanish team’s attack, while Gabri Veiga will likely await his chance from the bench. However, it remains to be seen which decisions the Spanish coach will make.

England U21 vs Spain U21 Prediction
There is no clear favorite in this match as both teams have performed similarly throughout the competition, and this is the final game, which means that any result is possible. Therefore, we predict that the first half will end without a winner or that the match will end in a draw.

BONUS Prediction
Although bookmakers give both equal chances, we think England could be closer to victory. We say this because of their excellent defense, which has not conceded a single goal in this tournament, which is a remarkable achievement.
We have not the slightest doubt that the English will again be maximally focused and concentrated in defense, and as the 22bet bookmaker offers a “line” of 9.5 at the moment (Friday 17:00) on the number of shots on target, we must take advantage of it.
We believe that the bookmaker will certainly correct this “line” by the start of the match, and we are convinced that the English (if they are in the right rhythm) will not allow the Spaniards too much freedom.
Prediction: Under 9.5 shots on target
Odds: 1,50
