Spain v England confirmed lineups and team news

Spain welcome England to the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium in the League A Group C decider on Saturday night.

Luis de la Fuente's team have been faultless in the competition up to now, and they'll be looking for a repeat of their victory against England back in September -- where they capitalised on a number of Three Lions errors to come away from Wembley with a 3-2 win.

Despite losing against Spain in their 2026/27 Nations League opener, a superior goal difference means that Thomas Tuchel's side can still top the group with victory in the Spanish capital, a feat that few have managed in more recent years.

With a more favourable route to the final on the line for the side who comes out on top, we bring you the latest team news and confirmed lineups for the eagerly anticipated clash between two of Europe's most complete nations.
