Spain vs France Odds and Spreads
How They Got to the Euro 2024 Semifinals
After enjoying a superb group campaign with victories against France, Croatia, and Italy, Spain has since destroyed Georgia and hosts Germany to secure their safe passage to the semi-finals.
Unbeaten in 16 of their last 17 matches since losing 2-0 to Scotland last year, Spain has arguably been the most impressive team to watch in the tournament and will be confident of going all the way to Berlin.
On the other side, France has struggled in the competition with a less-than-stellar set of performances in Germany. Held to group-stage draws by the Netherlands and Poland, Didier Deschamps’ side needed an own goal to squeeze past Belgium before a dramatic penalty shoot-out victory against Portugal.
Euro 2024 Semifinal: Spain vs France Injury Report
Two of the usual Spanish back four are missing with Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand suspended, however, striker Alvaro Morata is available after reports of him being booked against Germany proved false. Pedri is a major injury doubt, but in-form Dani Olmo may be preferred in any case.
France hopes to have a full squad available for this game but Kylian Mbappe is still being troubled by a broken nose which may be a factor in his struggles in Germany. Adrien Rabiot returns from a ban.
Spain is a slight favorite to win this match at a +170 soccer betting line. You can watch the game on FOX or stream it on FuboTV on Tuesday, July 9th, at 3 p.m. ET.

Two Best Prop Bets for Spain vs Germany
1. Team Prop: 1st Half Draw
France has excellent defense and is very hard to score against. But their powerless attack is a much more significant factor. Keeping a clean sheet against the best attack at the EURO is unlikely but I don’t expect that goal to come in the first half of the game,
Both teams got on the scoresheet in just two of the last eight head-to-heads. While Spain has been free-flowing in front of goal during that streak, their resolute defensive displays should attract the bulk of praise.
La Roja has conceded just once to an opposition player at these finals, while they’ve not conceded more than once in any of those seven aforementioned wins.
Spain can therefore head into this blockbuster semi-final meeting with France fully confident, especially as they’ve restricted Les Bleus to a goal or less in seven of their last eight encounters. With a place in the final on the line, no one will take big risks in the first half.
Therefore, I expect an intense match in the first half but without many scoring chances. I am backing a draw at halftime priced at -125 according to the latest Euro 2024 odds.
2. Best Player Prop: Dani Olmo a Great Value Bet to Score
Dani Olmo was not Luis de la Fuente’s first choice as a starter for their Euro 2024 campaign, but how the three-time champions finish will depend in no small part on him.
He replaced the injured Pedri against Germany early on in the quarter-final and contributed to both of Spain’s goals in a thrilling 2-1 extra-time victory.
He has two goals and two assists in 226 minutes played and I expect him once again to deliver. If you’re looking for a soccer player prop bet, you should back him to find the back of the net at +375.
