Iran vs. Spain: Odds and Prediction
Moneyline: Iran: 14/1, Spain: 1/200
Totals (O/U): 155.1
Spread: 33.5
Spain is the clear favorite for this game and rightfully so. The defending champions have shown no signs of weakness thus far. They have already secured first place in Group G after defeating Brazil by 18 points.
It is fair to say that going into this matchup, Team Spain will face little pressure and it might be an opportunity for them to practice some schemes in a game setting.
Iran came quite close to winning their outing against Cote d'Ivoire, and things would've been different if they had been able to pull off that win. However, they are out of contention to reach Round 2.
Expect Spain to come out and take an early lead, which may get out of control as the game progresses.
