Prediction 3: Spain x Colombia / Full-time draw.
When Spain takes on Colombia at Wembley on Friday night, they should be ready for a tough encounter despite their outstanding record in 2023. On Saturday, neutrals in London may look forward to a thrilling matchup between Colombia and another team on a stunning 19-match undefeated run across all competitions.
There could be scoring chances for both teams in the next game, given that their most recent friendly match finished in a 2-2 stalemate in June 2017.
