Spain vs England Prediction & Betting tips
Spain host England on Sunday, November 15, 2026, at 9:45 PM EET (8:45 PM local time) at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano in Madrid in the final matchday of UEFA Nations League Group A3. Both nations have already secured their spots in the quarter-finals, making this final group fixture a direct shootout for first place and top-seed status. Victory by any margin secures top spot. Spain won the reverse fixture 3–2 at Wembley in September, so a one-goal win for England puts them ahead on overall goal difference (+13 to +8), while a win by two or more goals gives them the head-to-head advantage.
Spain:
Spain enter the match on a 12-game winning streak across all competitions. Luis de la Fuente’s side defeated Czechia 2–0 in Prague on Thursday behind goals from Álex Baena and Marc Pubill. Several regular starters who were rested or limited against Czechia—including Lamine Yamal, Pedri, Nico Williams, Aymeric Laporte, and Mikel Oyarzabal—are expected to return to the starting XI.
Spain (4-2-3-1): Unai Simón – Pedro Porro, Pau Cubarsí, Dean Huijsen, Marc Cucurella – Fabián Ruiz, Pedri – Lamine Yamal, Fermín López, Álex Baena – Mikel Oyarzabal
England:
England booked their quarter-final berth on Thursday with a 2–1 home victory over Croatia. Morgan Rogers opened the scoring before captain Harry Kane netted a second-half penalty on his record-breaking 126th international appearance. Manager Thomas Tuchel is expected to rely on the core lineup from Thursday’s win. Harry Kane (who has scored in all five Nations League group games so far) will lead the attack supported by Jude Bellingham, Morgan Rogers, and Anthony Gordon.
England (4-2-3-1): Jordan Pickford – Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dan Burn, Jarell Quansah (or James Hill), Lewis Hall – Declan Rice, Elliot Anderson – Morgan Rogers, Jude Bellingham, Anthony Gordon – Harry Kane
