With only four points so far, the 2010 winners can’t take their foot off the gas just yet as there is a scenario where they drop to third if they lose this one. They might still take things easy and hope for a draw, particularly if they hope to further ease Nico Williams into the tournament and experiment further with their midfield setup.

Mikel Oyarzabal is the starting striker while the wide situation was overhauled. Gavi and Ferran Torres got the nods in the curtain raiser and disappointed in providing the width and cutting edge necessary, a recovered Lamine Yamal joined Alex Baena as the wing pairing in the much more comprehensive 4-0 win last time out.
