Head to Head

Spain have the advantage over Uruguay, with five victories to none, including five draws in ten meetings.

Uruguay Form

Uruguay dropped points for the second consecutive time in their Group H match against Cape Verde on Monday, drawing 2-2.

La Celeste had 66% possession and 16 shots in the match, with two attempts on target.

Before that result, Uruguay failed to beat Saudi Arabia in their opening 2026 FIFA World Cup group game, drawing 1-1.

Los Charrúas have drawn four of their last five matches, with one defeat. They scored five goals and conceded nine.

Uruguay have been struggling to win their matches recently, and at this World Cup, which is not ideal form to have when taking Spain, as they have yet to beat their opponents in ten meetings, which includes five defeats and five draws.

Spain Form

Spain bounced back to form in their Group H match against Saudi Arabia last weekend, winning 4-0.

La Roja had 65% possession and 21 shots in the game, with nine attempts on target.

Before that solid performance, Spain were below-par in their FIFA World Cup opener against Cape Verde, drawing 0-0.

La Roja have won two of their last five matches, with three draws. They scored eight goals and conceded two.

Spain will be pleased to have picked up their first three points in the tournament and will look to close out the group stage campaign with another victory when they take on an Uruguay side that is winless in six outings, which includes six draws.
