Euro 2008 Final - Preview

After two weeks of sensational European football it all boils down to the Euro 2008 final on Sunday, where Germany will take on Spain in the football highlight of the year.

Germany entered the tournament as favourites in the outright winner betting markets, however it is Spain who go into the final as the short odds favourites to claim their first piece of European silverware since 1964.

While the Germans will virtually have home advantage playing in Austria, the Spanish will be backing their disciplined defence and clinical strikers to put down the Germans in Vienna on Sunday.

However a head to head comparison of the two teams show that Germany should take the favourites tag into the Euro 2008 final. The two teams have played 19 times at the highest level, with Germany holding a 3 win advantage over the Spanish,

What’s more, Germany are no strangers to encounters at the highest level, having reached the European football championship finals in 1992 and 1996.

The only statistic counting in Spain’s favour is the result of their most recent encounter in Mallorca, which Spain won emphatically, putting Germany away with a 3-1 win.
