The UEFA Nations League aims to replace meaningless friendlies with competitive matches between equally ranked nations, featuring a league structure with promotion and relegation.
Opta's prediction gives Spain a 40.2% chance of winning, with England at 33.6%. Historically, Spain has a strong record against England, winning six of their last nine meetings. Top players like Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham for England, and Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal for Spain, are expected to feature prominently.
England will be without Marcus Rashford and Cole Palmer due to injuries. Spain's lineup is also affected by the absence of Marc Pubill and Joan Garcia.
