Spain v Switzerland
📅
Kick Off: Monday 18th November at 19:45
🏆
Competition: UEFA Nations League
Luis de la Fuente witnessed his Spain side extend their unbeaten run in the Nations League, winning 2-1 last time out in Copenhagen. That result confirmed that they will top League A of Group 4, so we could see some rotation.
Switzerland, meanwhile, were held to a 1-1 draw by Serbia, meaning they have picked up just two points from their five games so far, confirming their relegation from League A before this game kicks off.
⭐ Spain v Switzerland Best Bet
Zeki Amdouni has been the standout player in an underperforming Switzerland team, racking up three goals in four Nations League starts. He has accrued the most shots for the Swiss, averaging 4.76 shots per 90 minutes in the tournament.
Last time out, the 23-year-old had seven shots against Serbia, with five on target, getting on the scoresheet. He also scored against Spain in the reverse fixture, racking up six shots with one on target.

👕 Spain v Switzerland Predicted XI
🔍 Spain v Switzerland Players To Watch
⚪ Granit Xhaka
Operating in the Swiss engine room, Granit Xhaka has managed seven shots in four Nations League games so far, averaging 1.75 shots per game. The only match he failed to shoot was against Denmark in round one, when his side were reduced to ten men after 52 minutes. Xhaka himself was also sent off later in the game.
🔴 Dani Olmo
Dani Olmo made his second Nations League appearance last time out against Denmark, having recovered from a thigh injury. In that game, he played in an advanced midfield role, registering two shots in total, with one on target. The other attempt went extremely close, narrowly brushing past the right post.
🔴 Alvaro Morata
Alvaro Morata appeared off the bench against Denmark for a 20 minute cameo, making three fouls and picking up a booking.
Prior to that game, he also committed two fouls against Switzerland in the reverse fixture, and two fouls against Serbia when leading the line for his national side. He looks a very generous price to sin a couple of times here.

💻 Spain v Switzerland Form and Tactics
Even without the likes of Rodri, Lamine Yamal and Dani Carvajal, Spain managed to overcome Denmark in Copenhagen by a 2-1 scoreline, putting them clear at the top of the group by six points. Goals from Mikel Oyarzabal and Ayoze Perez guided the current holders to a 2-0 lead after 58 minutes.
Denmark certainly had their chances in that time, but could only manage to find the back of the net late on through Gustav Isaksen, capitalising on a mix-up at the back between Fabian Ruiz and David Raya.
Switzerland looked on course to keep their League A survival hopes alive against Serbia last time out, as Zeki Amdouni gave the hosts the lead after 78 minutes, shortly after Aleksandar Mitrovic saw his penalty kick saved.
However, Aleksa Terzic hit back late on, scoring from a counter-attack in the 88th minute. That levelled the score, meaning Switzerland have managed a record of two draws and three losses from their five games so far.
They sit three points off Serbia in third, although will not overtake them due to the head-to-head record – Switzerland have had their relegation from League A confirmed.
