Goaloo Analysis
Spain and Portugal have a rich and competitive history, particularly in the 21st century, where Spain has generally been the dominant force. Although Portugal managed to secure a victory on home soil during the 2004 European Championship, they have not defeated "La Furia Roja" in any official matches since then.
Spain's success against Portugal includes critical knockout matches, such as their 1-0 win in the 2010 World Cup and a tense penalty shootout victory in Euro 2012 after a 0-0 draw. Their encounter at the 2018 World Cup ended in a thrilling 3-3 draw, featuring a memorable hat-trick from Cristiano Ronaldo.
In their recent meetings during the group stage of the previous Nations League edition, Spain demonstrated their superiority with a 1-1 draw followed by a 1-0 win, allowing them to edge past Portugal by a single point and ultimately win the trophy. These results reflect Spain's ability to perform well against their Iberian rivals, setting the stage for future encounters filled with anticipation and intensity.

Goaloo Prediction
As we look ahead to the upcoming final, two pivotal duels could significantly influence the outcome. First, the matchup between Pedri and Vitinha will be crucial, as both players are set to dominate the midfield. Their performance will likely dictate the flow of the game. The second crucial duel features Nuno Mendes against Lamine Yamal—with Mendes being regarded as one of the best left-backs in the world and Yamal emerging as a top winger. The result of this clash could greatly enhance their team's chances of securing the trophy.
In terms of the overall match dynamics, Spain is expected to maintain territorial dominance unless an early goal disrupts the balance—an outcome that remains a possibility. Even without an early goal, we anticipate a high-scoring affair, given the defensive vulnerabilities both teams have displayed, coupled with the attacking talents on display.
Given these factors, we are betting on a total of over 2.5 goals, as this has been a common occurrence in Spain's last six matches. It would be fitting for such a high-profile final to extend beyond regular time, leading us to suggest a potential scoreline of 2-2.

Pick：Total goals Over (2.5)
