Analyst write-up

Spain likely controls via elite defense (0.22 GCA avg) and possession (Rodri, Pedri dominant). Belgium dangerous on counter with pace (Trossard, Lukebakio) but limited clear chances. Midfield injury (Onana) disrupts balance. Tight, low-scoring: 1-1 or 2-1 Spain most likely, reflecting Spain's form advantage and defensive strength against Belgium's contained threat.

Main risk: Belgium's away form (4.5 GF avg) may be elite and portable rather than group-play inflation, permitting upset. Spain vulnerable to Belgium's counter-attack pace and direct play despite midfield dominance. Knockout-stage rotations or tactical shifts could alter expected-goal profile. Pre-match xG unavailable to validate chance quality.

Unknowns: Pre-match xG/xGA unavailable (post-match only). Recent head-to-head absent. Confirmed lineups not published (showing previous-match XI; selection may change). No Elo ratings to cross-validate.
