Spain vs Czech Republic

Spain and the Czech Republic are set to trade tackles at the Estadio La Rosaleda in an exciting UEFA Nations League encounter.

After back-to-back draws with Portugal and the Czech Republic, Luis Enrique’s side got their stuttering Nations League campaign off the mark last time out. Pablo Sarabia’s early strike fired Spain to a hard-fought 1-0 triumph away to Switzerland, extending his nation’s unbeaten run to seven games (W5, D2). Moreover, before being held to a 1-1 draw to Portugal in their most recent home outing, ‘La Furia Roja’ had won all four previous home fixtures in the post-Euro 2020 campaign. Spain could move ahead of the competition in this group if they can extend an impressive 100% unbeaten H2H record against the Czechs (W4, D2). The hosts should feel comfortable about their scoring prospects, having found the net in 17 consecutive internationals since a goalless draw with Sweden at Euro 2020.

In the meantime, the Czech Republic succumbed to a 2-0 defeat at Portugal last time out, halting a two-match unbeaten start to their new Nations League journey (W1, D1). Delivering action from the get-go, the Czechs have witnessed each of their three Nations League games this term feature precisely two first-half goals. Yet, Jaroslav Silhavy’s men have struggled away from home since exiting Euro 2020 last summer. They have not only failed to win four of their five internationals on hostile turf since (D2, L2- 90min) but drew a blank three times in that sequence. That could be particularly worrying, as the Czechs have yet to keep a clean sheet across their six all-time Nations League away fixtures (W3, L3).
