Fanspel Predictions
The match will be an intriguing one — with Spain playing their native possession football while Ivory Coast proving difficult to defeat. However, we wouldn’t be surprised if we see a turn of events from Ivory Coast.
Spain’s U23 team finished top of their group with five points while Ivory Coast finished second with the same number of points. Spain may have topped their group, but Ivory Coast qualified from a tougher group D, which had heavyweights Brazil and Germany.
Spain’s Pedri Gonzalez and Dani Olmo offer Spain a substantial attack at the front of the pack, but they have shown tiredness. Ivory Coast has managed only one goal through the tournament, the lone goal coming from Franck Kessie.
Fanspel’s Suggested Starting XI
Goal-keeper: Simon
Defenders: Garcia, Bailey, Torres
Midfielders: Kessie, Ceballos, Olmo, Pedro
Strikers: Amad Diallo, Kouame, Oyarzabal
