Cyprus vs Spain odds
Cyprus have suffered a disastrous qualifying campaign this time around, sitting bottom of Group A without a single point from seven games and a -23 goal difference. With that in mind, Spain are the last team they probably want to welcome to Kolossi on Thursday.
La Roja are top of the group with five wins and one defeat from six games, recovering from that loss against Scotland to win their last four qualifiers by a 16-1 aggregate scoreline; including a 6-0 victory the last time they faced Cyprus.
