The winner in this top match can - depending on the outcome of the losing duel - already plan fixed for the semifinals. The situation is even more comfortable for Portugal, who are able to compete completely against their big neighbor from Spain, knowing that the last group game against Armenia is a kind of "mandatory victory". In the squad of both teams are some top-class talents who have already proven themselves at the highest level. The bookmakers do not want to commit to a favorite and the odds offered are relatively balanced. To that end, between Portugal and Spain, predicting the winner is also a difficult undertaking. The game starts on Wednesday at 16:45.

Portugal - Statistics & Current Form
Free soccer tips
Semi-finals, finals, European champions! In the last three years, the Portuguese U19 selection has continued to develop and last year took the crown in a thrilling endgame. Only in extra time Portugal defeated Italy 4-3 in Finland. The first appearance in Armenia was immediately the repeat of the final of the past European Championship. But this time, Portugal was superior from the start and was able to set a first exclamation mark with the 3-0 win.

The first top match of the U19 European Championship in Armenia was the best proof that the fictitious market value has no significance. With Portugal except for central defender Goncalo Cardoso - who could also score 1-0 after a corner - hardly a player at all with a market value provided. In the Italians, there was hardly a player without market value, but the Squadra Azzurra was completely without chance.

There is no waiting game, but the playfully strong Portuguese always look for the vertical and direct way forward.

Traditionally, Spain is one of the big favorites in the U19 European Championship. Since its introduction in 2002 - previously the European champion in the under-18 age group has been played - Spain has won no fewer than seven titles. However, Spain has been waiting for the title since 2015. Surprisingly, the Iberians were not even qualified for the final round in the last three races.

After three failed qualifications, Spain will again be the big favorite in 2019. The opening match against hosts Armenia was a relatively easy start for the team of head coach Santi Denia. Surprisingly, Armenia was able to equalize shortly after the restart, but the victory was never endangered. The scoring record was more than just clear, no less than 26 degrees of the Iberians were reported in the statistics. The goals were only a matter of time!

In the squad of Spaniards are with Ferran Torres, Bryan Gil and Ander Barrenetxea even three players who can already have an eight-digit market value on Transfermarkt.de. Even away from this trio, there are quite a few highly talented players who have already been able to attract international attention. The U19 selection is certainly well above the remaining teams in Armenia. After the bookmakers initially offered relatively balanced odds between Portugal and Spain, they have been revised downwards in the last few hours. On paper Spain is definitely stronger than Portugal, but especially in this age group, the issue of "Konstanz" is still often a problem.
