The much-anticipated clash between Spain and Switzerland in the Nations League promises to be a thrilling encounter between two of Europe's finest footballing nations.
Both teams come into the match with an impressive record, and will be looking to continue their winning ways in the tournament.
Spain
Spain are the current champions of the Nations League, having won the inaugural tournament in 2018. They are also the reigning European champions, having won the 2020 Euros.
Spain play an attractive brand of football, with a focus on possession and quick, incisive passing. They have a wealth of talent at their disposal and will be confident of beating any team in the world.
Switzerland
Switzerland are no slouches either. They are ranked 5th in the FIFA World Rankings, and have a number of top-quality players in their squad. They will be looking to make their mark on the tournament and show that they are a force to be reckoned with.
Switzerland are capable of playing a variety of styles, but they are usually at their best when they are able to control the tempo of the match. They have a strong defense and a clinical attack, and will be a tough test for any team.
The match
The match will be played at the Estadio La Cartuja in Seville, Spain. The capacity of the stadium is 57,619 and it is expected to be a sell-out.
The match is scheduled to start at 20:45 CET (19:45 GMT). It will be broadcast live on television and online.
Prediction
This is a difficult match to call. Both teams can beat any team on their day, but Spain will be confident of victory. They have a more experienced and talented squad, and they are the reigning champions.
However, Switzerland are no pushovers. They are a well-organized and disciplined team, and they have a number of players who can hurt Spain.
I think Spain will win the match, but I think it will be a close-fought encounter. I predict a 2-1 victory for Spain.
