Portugal Team News

Despite the fact that he is a defender, Diogo Dalot’s impressive brace against the Czech Republic really hurt Portugal’s victory. Dalot’s backup wing full-back, Joao Cancelo, is currently the camp’s top scorer.

Cancelo has contributed to 3 goals, but none of them were off of a set piece. Nuno Mendes, the PSG defender who completes the most key passes in Group A2 of the Nations League with an average of four per game, will hopefully be paired with him in the second half.

Cancelo leads all of his teammates in interceptions per 90 minutes as the key players are defended. In four games, the full-back for Manchester City has intercepted 2.8 crucial passes from the opposition. Our two key Portuguese players to keep an eye on in this matchup are Dalot and Mendes.

Spain Team News

The unfortunate loss Spain suffered to Switzerland served as a reminder of Rodri’s significance in the park’s middle. Jordi Alba did, however, score the only goal of the game for Saturday’s hosts, and he is anticipated to start once more on Tuesday.

Left-winger Pablo Sarabia stands out as the best in this starting eleven when it comes to goal contributions. In a team that has scored goals from all over the field, Sarabia has contributed three goals. Marco Asensio has the same number of goals and assists as he does, but Sarabia’s goals have been much more significant.

Diego Llorente wins all the praise from a defensive standpoint. Llorente averages 2.5 interceptions per game, which is the most of any starter. On Tuesday, we’ll be keeping an eye on Sarabia and Llorente, two Spanish players.
