This should be the tie of the round. World Number 2 taking on the team in 3rd, Spain versus neighbors Portugal. I said this in the group stage against Brazil and Portugal and it ended up being a total bore draw but I am really hoping this one lives up to expectation. There is talent galore in both sides so I can see this being an entertaining match and with both defenses being so solid only one goal could well prove to be the winner.
With Cristiano Ronaldo knowing so much about most of the Spanish team you would think that would give Portugal the upper hand but with everyone knowing everything goes through him then all Spain have to do is tightly mark him and that should extinguish the fears. Spain to win 1-0.
Head To Head: Spain 15 wins, Draw 12, Portugal 5 wins
Last Meeting: 20/6/2004 Spain 0 Portugal 1
Odds: Spain 11/10, Draw 11/5, Portugal 10/3
Verdict: Spain 0 Portugal 1
