Great Britain v Spain men’s hockey betting is the final match of the pool stage. Great Britain go into this final encounter level on points at the top of Pool A with Australia. A tremendous 3-3 tie against the Australians kept Great Britain in the hunt for a place in the semi final. There is still some work to do though in this incredibly tight group. A defeat for Great Britain against Spain would see the Spaniards leap-frog Great Britain, eliminating the host nation. Australia and Pakistan are also in the hunt as they go head to head and there is the same scenario there. So any four of the sides can get through and it is all down to the wire now. Great Britain struck back from 3-0 down against Australia in their previous match to tie things up and the confidence which they should have taken from that will be immense. That was a big momentum shift which they really need to convert on Tuesday.

Spain though, after a stuttering start with a draw and a win, have rattled off back to back wins against South Africa. So they are not going to be pushovers as they have a big agenda of their own here and will know what awaits them. The advantage that Great Britain will have though, is that they play the match last on Thursday, so they will know exactly what needs to be done. Add that up with the support of the home crowd, and there is a good chance for Team GB. As long as Pakistan don’t beat Australia, then Great Britain will know that a draw will be enough for them to get through to the knockout stage. So plenty of exciting scenarios to watch out for in Great Britain v Spain men’s hockey betting. This is the final step before the semi finals.
