Match Day 1 of the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers continue today in Europe with more teams set to take on each other.

However, our attention for today's analysis will be the game between Spain and Greece in Group B.

The other Countries included in this Group are Sweden, Georgia, and Kosovo.

I bet you all will have the believe Spain are the favorite to top this group, and I can't agree less based on the caliber of players they've got.

Okay then, let's check out stats favoring both teams, shall we?

SPAIN:

  1. La Furia Roja have the advantage of playing at home, and I bet the Galanolefki won't want to overlook this fact.
    They, Spain, have seen off the likes of Germany, Switzerland, and Ukraine in their last 3 home games, with their emphatic 6 nil victory over the Germans being the latest.
    Getting a win against the Greeks shouldn't be a difficult task don't you think?
  2. The Spanish team's better "head to head" in their last 5 meetings against the Greeks is another stat favoring them.
    They've won 3, drawn 1, and lost 1 in these encounters.
    Unfortunately, the validity of this stat can be hugely questioned considering that the last time both teams met was in 2008.

Let's proceed to Greece, shall we?

GREECE:

  1. Although the Galanofleki look to be the underdog in this game considering they are playing away from home and the caliber of players Spain have in their squad, the impressive form of the Greeks in their last 5 games shouldn't be overlooked.
    They, Greece, have managed 3 wins and 2 draws, compared to Spain who have 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in as many games.
    This stat shouod give the Galanolefki some huge boost going into this game.

CONCLUSION:
Based on the stats before us, the Greeks' impressive run of games is most likely to be ended by the Spaniards.
However, a draw is also very much likely.

Your thoughts and predictions are appreciated as always.
