England vs Spain Friendly Match Betting Preview PT 2
- By A.J. Ryder on November 14, 2016 18:41 GMTRegardless, one has to assume that he would view a victory (or even a drawn match) with the Spanish as a genuinely good outcome. He will be on a high after picking up a victory against their northern neighbours and looking to make another big statement here with a face-off against a side that demands much more respect in the international football world.

Looking at the betting markets, it appears as though the bookmakers all seem to think that England have plenty of work to do here and go in as the slim underdogs in a match that appears to be difficult to decipher from a wagering standpoint.
As it currently stands, you wil find Spain available at a price of around 6/4 for the outright victory while England can be backed at a rather competitive price tag of about 21/10 with a few major bookmakers.
The draw can be backed at a 23/10 margin and that's not totally out of the question either as England could very well open the scoring here and step in it once again by shipping a late goal. A 1-1 result wouldn't be a huge blemish for Southgate and he will likely view something like that as an opportunity to build on.
It's probably no coincidence that a 1-1 draw is the lowest-priced correct score draw and you'll find that trading anywhere from 9/2 all the way up to an 11/2 price right now with a 1-0 result in either dirction trading as high as 7/1 for Spain and 8/1 for England.
Look for Alvaro Morata to command plenty of respect in the first goalscorer market and you'll find him priced as high as a 5/1 listing about 24 hours before kick-off. Daniel Sturridge was able to get on the scoresheet last time and he'll be looking to improve on that by slotting home the opener here. He can be backed as high as a 13/2 price right alongside Iago Aspas.
