🇪🇸 Spain's Golden Generation
The Euro 2024 champions arrive as favorites with arguably the deepest squad in the tournament. Colombia — Copa America 2024 runners-up — are the clear second seed. Paraguay and Tunisia face an uphill battle in what shapes up as an elite top-two group.

Analyst Notes
Spain's Euro 2024 Momentum
La Roja won Euro 2024 playing scintillating football — Yamal, Pedri, and Rodri form the spine of a generational squad. Their pressing intensity and positional play make them the model's top-projected team in the entire group stage. Spain to win Group G at -200 is deserved.
Colombia's Tournament Pedigree
Don't sleep on Los Cafeteros. Their Copa America 2024 run (losing the final to Argentina) proved they can compete with anyone. James Rodríguez's tournament magic is real. Colombia to qualify at -350 is a near-lock, but topping the group at +250 has sneaky value.
