Spain U21 vs Romania U21 Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | UEFA U21 Euro 2025

The Spaniards have started their campaign with a win.

The Spain national under-21 football team are all set to clash with the Romania national under-21 football team in the group stage fixture of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship 2025 edition. The interesting match between the two sides will take place at the National Football Stadium.

Spain U21 are the table toppers in Group A as they are coming in after defeating Slovakia U21. They had put in a decent performance. They did take the lead in the first half, but because of their poor defence, La Rojita gave the lead away in the second half.

Cesar Tarrega scored the match winner in the final moments.

The Romania national under-21 football team fell prey to Italy U21 in their first game of the UEFA Euro U21 2025 edition. It is not a desired start for them. But now they have to step up against La Rojita to win the contest.

It is not going to be an easy contest for them as their opponents are strong and which will keep Romania U21 under pressure from the start.

Players to Watch

Mateo Joseph (Spain U21)

Mateo Joseph will once again lead the national under-21 football team in the attacking front. He was one of the goal scorers from Spain U21, which helped them secure a win against the hosts of the European competition. Mateo Joseph helped his side take the lead early, which eventually put some pressure on their opponents.

Louis Munteanu (Romania U21)

Louis Munteanu will also have to help his side step up, as they take on the Spaniards next. He did receive a yellow card in the previous game for his side. Munteanu did not perform to his full potential in the last fixture.

But this time around, it is a crucial match for his side. With his skills in the final third, he can cause trouble.
