USA vs Spain Betting Tips - USA backed in tight encounter against Spain in Nations Cup
The USA enters their upcoming Nations Cup clash with Spain in strong form, having won both previous matches and four of their last six overall. Spain, while coming off a win against Tonga, have shown inconsistency in the tournament and in recent fixtures. Head-to-head, the USA leads Spain 2-1. With confidence high in the USA squad, they are backed to cover a -3.5 handicap against Spain, who will need to drastically improve to challenge the Americans' consistent performance.
