- Spain U19 have won 4 of their last 5 matches, beating Bulgaria U19 (2-0) and the Netherlands U19 (3-0) away from home in their last 2 games.
- Wales U19 have won 2 and lost 3 of their last 5, beating Turkey U19 and Switzerland U19 away from home but losing 0-4 to Hungary U19 at home.
- Spain U19 are undefeated in their last 5 away games, winning all 5 and conceding just 2 goals.
Sweep at stake for Spain U19
Spain U19 are the runaway favourites at 27/100, but the odds of 15/2 for Wales U19 to stop the rot and 111/20 for the draw look a bridge too far, so we're going with the away win at the top price for the main bet.
Chris Gunter's side are built to park the bus, stay compact and nick something on the break or from a set piece but this Spain U19 team like to dominate possession, so the Welsh will have to be ruthless if they break the shackles.
Spain U19 are a ball-dominant 4-3-3 team that moves the ball fast, plays a high tempo and have full-backs that get into the attacking line, so this has the feel of a control versus counterpunch game.
Spain U19 are in their prime
Spain U19 have won 4 of their last 5 and come into this game following 4 straight victories in which they thrashed Bulgaria U19 (2-0) and the Dutch U19's (3-0) away from home.
If the Spaniards can match their away form and if they press as they usually do, then Spain should have the Welsh pinned back for long spells on Sunday and they should have the energy in midfield to cope with counterattacks.
Wales U19 have won 2 of their last 5, both away from home, and lost 3, including a 0-4 defeat at home to Hungary U19. Across all competitions, Gunter's men have won just 1 of their home matches (W1, D0, L2).
Goals on the agenda
Spain U19 have won 9 and lost just 1 of their last 10 in all competitions and we're expecting them to carry that momentum into this clash.
But in terms of the goals markets, we like the look of Over 2.5 goals at 2/5 and Both Teams to Score - Yes at 21/25, but we're keeping the shutout angle in play with Both Teams to Score - No at 43/50.
