Mysterious cat predicts Spain vs Argentina
Nimbus Pronos, the mysterious cat, widely followed for its uncanny football predictions, has backed Spain to claim their second World Cup title at the expense of reigning champions Argentina.
As noted by Bolavip, he two sides are remarkably evenly matched on paper. Across 14 previous meetings, both nations have recorded six wins apiece, with two encounters ending in draws, meaning nothing separates them historically heading into the final.
Their last meeting at a World Cup dates back to 1966, making Sunday's encounter a long-awaited reunion on the biggest stage of all.
A planned Finalissima between the two sides, scheduled for March, never materialised after UEFA and CONMEBOL failed to reach an agreement over the fixture.
For Spain, victory would deliver a second World Cup crown to go alongside their triumph at the 2010 edition in South Africa. For Argentina, winning would mean back-to-back World Cup titles following their victory at Qatar 2022 under the captaincy of Lionel Messi.
