Spain will look to complete a perfect group stage campaign at UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 when they take on Italy in their final Group B match at Stadion Wankdorf.
After back-to-back wins over Belgium and Portugal, including a 6-2 thrashing of the former, La Roja have already secured their spot in the quarterfinals. Led by a resurgent Alexia Putellas, who netted twice in their last outing, and a deep attacking core featuring Mariona Caldentey and Esther González, Spain are favorites to make it three wins from three and cement their title credentials under new manager Montse Tomé.
For Italy, however, the stakes are far higher. A last-minute equalizer from Portugal denied Le Azzurre early passage to the knockouts, leaving them needing a result against the reigning world champions to stay in the hunt. Cristiana Girelli’s stunning strike against Portugal showed their quality in attack, but they’ll need a near-flawless performance to overcome a Spanish side firing on all cylinders.
