England vs. Spain Predictions

• When: Saturday, September 26, 8:45 PM CET
• Where: Wembley Stadium, London, England

Two of the top European teams collide in the first round of the UEFA Nations League. The world and continental champions meet the previous World Cup semifinalist and the 2024 EURO runners-up. Three Lions want to prove their worth against the Red Fury and enter the new cycle with a great boost. Spain aims to maintain its reputation and present itself in the best possible way in its first appearance since winning the world title.

England vs. Spain Preview

England

England enter their Nations League opener looking to establish positive momentum ahead of new challenges. The team is pretty much the same as before, with Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice leading the way.

Let’s be realistic: England came for the World Cup title, yet settled for third place in the United States. They had everything in their hands against Argentina, yet collapsed in the final moments of the event. Why? We simply don’t know.

When it comes to statistics, the last 5 matches England played all saw both teams netting and over 2.5 goals. Also, in 7 of their previous 9 appearances, this unit scored at least twice.

Spain

The Red Fury called up the same team as for the World Cup. de la Fuente didn’t change a thing, and we are going to see Rodri, Cucurella, Pedri and Yamal again. The core of the team is young, and aside from a few players, the Spanish team is mostly made up of players under 26.

For those who didn’t watch the World Cup, Spain won it with one of the best defenses in tournament history. Believe it or not, Spain allowed only one goal, which was in the quarterfinals against Belgium. Other than that, de la Fuente’s unit recorded 7 clean sheets.

Rodri bosses the midfield, with the World Cup Golden Ball from two months ago being the centerpiece of their tactics. He is superb on both sides of the field in either defense or offense, and is perfect protection from the back for Yamal, Pedri, Bane, and the rest of the guys.
