✔ Correct Score Prediction Spain vs Costa Rica
For this big fixture of the 2022 World Cup, our prediction for the exact score would be a game dominated by Spain, who could win with a comfortable lead in this game.
Spain win
This is the most likely outcome. Luis Enrique’s side are huge favourites in this game. With their superiority, they should end up winning this game against a team which is far inferior to them. 2-0 and 1-0 seem to be the most appropriate results.
Draw
This is a possible scenario. This will be the first game in this World Cup for Spain, which could therefore put pressure on them. Costa Rica will be looking to defend well and if La Roja is not on a good day, it could end in a draw. Final scores of 1-1 or 0-0 are possible.
Costa Rica Win
It is quite difficult to envisage this scenario. Even if Spain find it difficult to create chances, we do not see Costa Rica being able to win this game which would be a resounding achievement. 0-1 or 1-2 would already be an achievement.
✔ Half-Time / Full-Time Prediction: Spain – 1st Half: Spain – 2nd Half
In this game, Spain will have to be patient against a compact and solid low block. Nevertheless, we expect Morata’s teammates to score a goal in each of the two halves to win this game.

📄 Analysis of Spain vs Costa Rica
Pre-betting Analysis
Spain finished top of their 2022 World Cup qualification group. Facing Sweden, Greece, Georgia, and Kosovo, La Roja easily qualified with six wins and one draw in eight games played.
Costa Rica are capable of the best and the worst. Capable of defeating the great nations of the North American continent and usually solid defensively, the Costa Ricans are on the other hand clumsier offensively, even against supposedly weaker nations.
Current Form
Finalists in the 2021 Nations League, Spain are in great shape, leading their group in this new edition of the Nations League after four games (two draws and two wins). The only flaw is the defeat against the French team in the final of the Nations League. Other than that, whether in friendlies or high-stakes games, this is a very solid team.
Costa Rica are confident. Keylor Navas’ side beat Canada and the USA in their final qualifier before defeating New Zealand 1-0 in the play-off final to book their spot at the 2022 World Cup.
