Japan vs Spain Prediction & Picks - Men's Olympic Tournament
by Bradley Gibbs in Soccer Picks
We've now made it through the group stages of the men's football event at the 2024 Olympics. In the French capital of Paris, eight teams remain. In this quarter-final clash, a Japanese team with a perfect record takes on the Spanish, who struggled to cope with Egypt when resting some of their big players last time out. The guys representing Spain are hotly fancied to win this match looking at the early betting lines, but can the Japanese spring a surprise here?Limited Offer. Currently at BetMGM

Our Japan vs Spain Prediction
I'll get right to it here. 'Both Teams to Score' is a bet that looks generously priced. Both teams have shown plenty offensively since touching down in Paris, so I really do think that the chances of both notching at least once in this match should be shorter. Sure, the Japanese are yet to concede a goal at this tournament, but this is now their toughest test, while despite impressing offensively, they've not looked overly secure at the back, even if they have kept three consecutive clean sheets. The Spanish team contains forwards of a higher class than Japan's previous opponents, so don't be surprised to the Asian side finally concede.
At the same time, though, we can expect the Spanish to struggle defensively too. After all, for all they've scored in three out of three, offering plenty going forward, they've kept zero clean sheets, while they've looked very shaky on the break. Our Prediction: Both Teams to Score.
