Spain and the Netherlands face off tonight in Valencia (10.45 pm) to decide who will reach the Nations League final four
It doesn't get much better than that. Two exquisite teams, star-studded squads, a stalemate after the first leg, and a lot still to play for.
Spain will face the Netherlands on Sunday night at Mestalla stadium in Valencia (10.45 pm), following Thursday's entertaining 2- 2 draw in Rotterdam.
Mikel Merino and Nico Williams scored for the defending Nations League and current European champion at De Kuip.
However, La Furia Roja demonstrated several defensive flaws, resulting in a draw against Ronald Koeman's lot.
According to Marca, Luis de la Fuente will change just one player in the starting XI. Barcelona's Pau Cubarsi withdrew from the squad due to an ankle injury he suffered in the first leg, and Real Madrid's Raul Asencio will probably replace him.
He was left out of the squad for the first quarter-final game, as De la Fuente preferred to Daan Huijsen as his backup centre-back.
Regarding the visitors, Xavi Simons is expected to find his place on the team right from the start. Jeremie Frimpong should drop into defence, with Lutsharel Geertruida moving over to left-back.
