Spain eye three points away against Malta in UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers
Spain will play Malta on Tuesday in UEFA Euro 2020 Qualifiers as both teams vie for qualification. La Furia Roja go into this game as the favourites.
Kick-off : 8:45 PM (Local)
Venue : Ta’ Bali National Stadium, Ta’ Qali
Spain won 2-1 against Norway earlier in the ongoing international break and they must keep winning to make a solid qualification towards Euro 2020. They must play their brand of football.
La Furia Roja now play Malta away and it shouldn’t be as tough a game. They will just need to play positive football and the three points should be within their reach.
Spain have their next match in June against the Faroe Islands which is an European qualifier.
On the other hand, Malta won 2-1 against the Faroe Islands earlier in the ongoing international break and they will hope to keep playing positive football moving ahead.
Malta now play former world champions Spain in the euro qualifiers which should be an extremely difficult game. But Malta will look to give their all and hope for the best.
Spain have an excellent record against Malta and they will look to continue the good work.

Prediction
