Bet £40, get £20 in free bets ahead of Spain vs Saudi Arabia

Spain will want to quickly put their first game behind them, where they drew a blank against World Cup debutants Cape Verde. They now face Saudi Arabia, who appear to no longer be the cannon fodder they once were in this tournament.

As one of the tournament favourites attempts to get their campaign up and running, you too can start your journey at Star Sports by netting £20 in free bets. All you need to do is head to the bookie, sign up and place a £40 bet.

The Euro 2024 winners took 23 shots against the Africans, but couldn’t beat goalkeeper Vozinha, who pulled off a string of blinding saves. On another day, Spain probably would create far fewer chances, but score a hatful.

The Saudis meanwhile, had Uruguay on the ropes until eventually conceding ten minutes from time. They of course produced an even bigger shock four years ago when they defeated Argentina in the opening round of group stage games – before Lionel Messi and co went on to win the whole tournament. Group H – so far – isn’t quite the two-horse race everyone expected it to be.

Spain to get back on track

While Spain have made life difficult for themselves in the early stages of previous tournaments, all logic would suggest that the goals will start flowing for Luis de la Fuente’s side. They may also have phenom Lamine Yamal back for this one to add an extra spark.

• Spain to win and BTTS
• Spain to win and over 2.5 goals

Saudi Arabia carry more of a goalscoring threat these days and Salem Al-Dawsari, who scored that memorable goal against Argentina in Qatar, is the one to watch.
