Cyprus take on the visitors Spain in the round 9 match of group stage of UEFA Euro-2024 qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, November 16th at Alphamega Stadium (Kolossi).
The Cypriots are the outsiders of the Euro 2024 qualifying Group A, with initially nothing good in store for them. They have a weak team with a primitive style of play. If, at some point, the "islanders" could occasionally resist their opponents, now they are not even capable of that. In the Euro qualification, Cyprus suffered seven defeats in seven matches with a total score of 2-25. Four of them were significant. They were already crushed by Norway (4-0) and Scotland (3-0) away. Additionally, there was a defeat for the Cypriots in Georgia (0-4). Spain has also once teased this opponent in the current qualifying cycle and is likely to do it again.

After victories over Norway (1-0) and Scotland (2-0), the "Red Fury" secured their place in Euro in advance. Yes, essentially, the remaining matches for the Spaniards are like friendly games. However, firstly, the class difference between them and the opponent is so significant that even in a match that doesn't decide anything for the favorite, a rout is likely to happen. And secondly, Spain's battle with Scotland for the top spot in the group is not yet over. Of course, it's just a formality, but still. In the current qualification, the "Red Fury" has already won convincingly. For example, against Norway (3-0) at home or against Georgia (7-1) away.
.By the way, the Spaniards also thrashed the Cypriots not so long ago. In September, the group's underdog received six unanswered goals in Granada. There is no doubt about Spain's victory in terms of class and now. The only question is how confident this victory will be and how many goals the favorite will score against the Cypriots once again. Considering that the match for the "Red Fury" practically doesn't solve anything in terms of the tournament, I assume that we shouldn't expect a beating like in the last encounter. However, Spain should win with a margin of at least three goals. The prediction is a handicap (-2.5) for the away team.
Prediction for the match: Spain to win with -2.5 handicap.
