SPAIN PREVIEW: STRONG RESPONSE TO DROPPING POINTS IN BELGRADE
Spain brushed side Switzerland 1-4 away from home in the previous international break, a scoreline that deserves a significant level of credit when considering how impressive Switzerland were at EURO 24. La Roja are now in a position to kick on and would love to so here, with a win enough to take them top of the table.
DENMARK PREVIEW: CONSECUTIVE 2-0 SCORELINES SEE DENMARK TOP THE TABLE
Denmark have played two matches in the league stage and so far, they’ve been excellent. They mix attacking potency with defensive stability very well. The Danish are a rock-solid outfit and Spain will need to be careful at the other end of the pitch as well, because otherwise they will be hot on the counter-attack.

SPAIN VS DENMARK PREDICTION
Denmark will know that to keep hold of top spot in the group, they cannot afford to let any points slip by and even in Spain, the Danish will make things very difficult for the hosts. But Spain’s attacking options are so exciting, so dynamic that they are capable of breaching any backline at a moment’s notice, including that of Denmark. Back those offensive Spanish options that Luis de la Fuente has at his disposal to lead Spain to another victory in this game.
