This Round of 32 tie at SoFi Stadium pairs the Group H winners with the Group J runners-up. Spain advanced with a perfect record and a defence yet to concede, mixing control with the spark of the tournament's most exciting young talent under Luis de la Fuente. Austria, under Ralf Rangnick, reached the knockouts on energy and organisation. Expect Spain's possession game against Austria's pressing. With a Round of 16 place on the line and a draw sending the tie to extra time, Spain are heavy favourites. Our forecast backs Spain to win, with Austria's disruption unlikely to be enough.
