#广场预测世界杯赢40000U Uruguay vs Spain (8:00 AM Beijing time on June 27)

Venue: Akron Stadium, Guadalajara
This is a genuine top-of-the-group clash in Group H. After two rounds, Spain has 4 points with 1 win and 1 draw, scoring 4 goals and conceding none, in the best position to advance; Uruguay has 2 points from two draws, and their qualification situation is precarious. A draw is enough for Spain to secure first place in the group, while Uruguay can top the group with a win. A draw would give them 3 points, still giving them a chance to compete for the best third-placed finish, but a loss would likely mean elimination. It is worth noting that the second-placed team in this group will face the defending champion Argentina, who has already secured first place in Group J, in the knockout stage — this means both teams must fight hard to avoid falling to second place.
Basic Information on Both Teams
Uruguay is ranked 14th in the FIFA World Rankings, with a squad value of about €400 million. In the first two group matches, they drew 1-1 with Saudi Arabia and 2-2 with Cape Verde, failing to secure full points against two relatively weaker teams in the group. Their forward line issues are exposed — starting striker Núñez performed poorly in the first match, and replacement Viñas was also ineffective in the second, with neither forward showing the necessary finishing ability. The midfield is anchored by Valverde, Bentancur, and Ugarte, but given the current poor form of the forwards, breaking through Spain's defense will be extremely difficult. Spain is ranked 2nd in the FIFA World Rankings and is the 2024 European champion. In their first match, they were held to a 0-0 draw by Cape Verde, failing to start with a win; in the second, they quickly adjusted and thrashed Saudi Arabia 4-0, with Oyarzabal scoring twice and providing an assist, and Yamal, making his first World Cup start, scored his first World Cup goal. Spain's possession-based system is mature, but the goalless draw with Cape Verde in the first round exposed a persistent problem with ineffective attacking routes. The team has no major injuries or suspensions, and the midfield trio of Rodri, Pedri, and Fabián Ruiz are in great form.
Score Prediction
Spain's form has clearly improved, while Uruguay's forward line remains in a slump. After two consecutive draws, Uruguay has no way back and must attack proactively, but this may leave space for Spain's controlled counter-attacks. Spain's midfield control will be key to the match. Prediction: Spain wins 2-0 to secure top spot in the group and advance.
