Spain may have won the UEFA Nations League back in June with a penalty shoot-out victory over Croatia but the start of their Euro 2024 qualification cycle hasn't exactly gone to plan so far. 

A solid 3-0 win at home to Norway got things off to a flier but a 0-2 loss on the road to Scotland really put a spanner in the works.

As such, they sit in fourth spot in Group A with their one win and one loss to date, though the other sides above the former World Cup winners have played more matches. 

One of those other teams is Georgia, who sit in second place thanks to their record of one win, one draw and one loss, who'll be looking to record one of their biggest ever victories here.

    Georgia vs. Spain best bet

    • Pick: Both teams to score - YES
    • Odds: +115 (BetMGM)

    This selection might come as a surprise given that Spain are the overwhelming favourites here, but the visitors have conceded a fair amount of goals lately. 

    Overall they've kept just two clean sheets across their last seven internationals, whilst the visitors haven't kept a clean sheet across their last five Euro qualification away games.

    That's their longest such streak since an eight-game run between 1983 and 1994 and with Georgia possessing some talented attacking options, it wouldn't surprise if that streak was to be extended again here. 

    Georgia vs. Spain flier bet

    • Pick: Rodri to score anytime
    • Odds: 4.75 (Dafabet)

    Given the fact that Spain are big favourites to win here, it's hard to find much value when looking at the first goalscorer market.

    That's why we've opted to pick Manchester City midfielder Rodri to score anytime at 4.75 with Dafabet. 

    He may have only scored once across 43 international appearances for his nation but the central midfielder should see plenty of the ball here against Georgia. He's also been in semi-regular goalscoring form for his club of late, scoring twice across four Premier League outings to kick off this season in style.
