Bulgaria vs Spain match prediction 4 September 2025
The Spanish national team has dominated European football in recent years. Red Fury reached the finals of the UEFA Nations League twice in a row, and also won Euro 2024. Luis de la Fuente's players should not experience any serious problems in the selection for the 2026 World Cup, besides, they will face a battle with the modest Bulgarian national team in the opening round. The Lions are going through difficult times, and therefore they are unlikely to offer such a high-status opponent worthy resistance.
The Spanish national team has recently been pleasing fans not only with great results, but also with incredibly spectacular and effective football. In the previous five matches in all tournaments, Fury scored 15 goals (3.00 on average per game), which in itself is a great indicator, while Luis de la Fuente's players were the Swiss, twice the Dutch, French and Portuguese. The Bulgarian national team is an order of magnitude inferior to all of them, so the best option for the prediction is the individual total of the Spanish national team over 2.5 goals, and separately you can bet on a total over 3.5 goals.
Our main prediction: is Total 2 Over 2.5 for a coefficient of 2.70 in the betway bookmaker.
Our betting tip on the match: is Handicap 2 (+2.5) for a coefficient 2.11 in the 1xbet bookmaker.
Our final betting tip on the match: is Total Over 3.5 for a coefficient of 2.25 in the bet365 bookmaker.
