In 2016 Spain could hardly qualify to the final stage of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship. It occupied the second place in the qualifying group with 23 points taken and 31-9 goal difference and knocked Austria U-21 out in the play-offs due to the away goals rule applied after 1:1 and 0:0 scoreline. Spain U-21 comes to the matchup with the eight-game unbeaten run. For the last time it was defeated on the 24th of March 2016 followed by five victories and three draws.
Both teams are one of the best teams in the world at youth level. Spain U-21 shows attacking football, as for Italians - they show rational football starting from the first youth teams focusing on the defense and showing solid football at appropriate scoreline. I believe the spread won't be big as Italians manage to shut out.
Prediction for the much: under 2.5 scored goals.
