Spain vs. Belgium is the second of this summer’s World Cup quarterfinals, pitting familiar European foes against one another for a place in the final four.
While these nations haven’t clashed in a decade, this will be their 23rd meeting (excluding The Olympics). Spain, unsurprisingly, has dominated with 12 victories, including five on the spin, but the Red Devils won the only knockout meeting between the teams at the World Cup on penalties in 1986.
La Roja is the undisputed favorite for Friday’s encounter at SoFi Stadium, especially considering it has won four of five World Cup matches this summer without conceding. Belgium has quality in its roster and flexed its muscles against the USMNT last time out, but will need yet another improvement to overcome Spain.
Here’s how to watch an intriguing quarterfinal unfold.
