The favorite in the match between Spain and Belgium is known

Specialists are sharing their predictions ahead of the quarterfinal match between the national teams of Spain and Belgium at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Zamin.uz reports.

In particular, the Opta supercomputer has released its calculations for this crucial encounter. According to the results, while one team’s chance of winning is rated significantly higher, there remains a possibility that no winner will be determined during regular time.

This match, which starts at midnight Tashkent time, will determine a semifinal berth and is expected to feature intense competition. Based on the supercomputer’s analysis, Spain’s national team has a 58.3% probability of winning within regular time.

This figure positions the Spaniards as the clear favorite in the upcoming game, with the artificial intelligence taking into account the team’s current form, the quality of players in the squad, and statistical data from recent matches.

Belgium’s national team, on the other hand, was assessed to have a much lower chance of winning in 90 minutes — just 19.1%. However, it should not be forgotten that the Belgian squad includes experienced players capable of changing the course of the game single-handedly.

Therefore, although the numbers favor Spain, the actual situation on the pitch could turn out quite differently. Additionally, the probability of the match ending in a draw during regular time was calculated at 22.6%.

If the score remains level after regular time, the winner will be determined through extra time or a penalty shootout. Overall, Spain’s victory is forecasted at 58 at 58.3%, Belgium’s success at 19.1.3%, Belgium’s success at 19.1%, and a draw at 22.6%.

According to One.uz, fans are in for a real football spectacle in this match. Whether the supercomputer’s predictions prove accurate will only be shown by what happens on the field.
