Spain vs Switzerland Predictions

• Both teams have scored in six of Spain’s last nine games 
• Four of the past five meetings between this pair have seen both teams find the net 
• Spain are unbeaten in 15 matches, a run which includes 13 wins and saw them lift the Euro 2024 trophy 

Tenerife thriller on the cards

Friday’s 2-1 win over Denmark secured Spain’s spot in the Nations League quarter-finals and made it 15 games unbeaten for the defending champions. 

La Roja won Euro 2024 in the summer and are looking an unstoppable force at current, beating Denmark despite Luis de la Fuente not having Lamine Yamal, Dani Carvajal, Rodri or Unai Simon – all four started in June’s Euros final – at his disposal. 

Given Spain’s immense form and the fact they are playing the section’s basement boys, Switzerland, Monday’s result already look a foregone conclusion. 

Swiss can score alongside second-string Spain

However, it may be slight premature to make that assumption. Spain have already topped the group, so with nothing to play for, an already thin La Roja may rotate even further, with their lineup in Tenerife likely to represent a third-string Spanish side. 

That could open the door for some rare joy for the Swiss, who have taken just two of a possible 15 points in a miserable Nations League campaign. 

Switzerland have at least drawn their last two matches and given both teams have scored in four of the last five meetings between the pair, it could pay to back the Red Crosses to net alongside their hosts in Tenerife.
