Spain
After Luis de la Fuente gave several squad players a run-out against Albania, his Spain XI should look much more familiar this weekend: Manchester City midfielder Rodri is back from a one-match ban and should join a number of other men in returning to the side.
Centre-back Nacho - who has just announced his departure from Real Madrid - and Real Betis forward Ayoze Perez - will both need to pass fitness tests after being sidelined last time out, but no new injury concerns have been reported.
Though Germany-based playmaker Dani Olmo impressed on his first start at Euro 2024, setting up the only goal for Ferran Torres, neither is expected to begin Sunday's game: young stars Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams should return to support captain Alvaro Morata up front.
Spain possible starting lineup:
Simon; Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella; Pedri, Rodri, Ruiz; Yamal, Morata, Williams
Georgia
Meanwhile, Georgia will be without Anzor Mekvabishvili due to suspension, so their midfield could remain unchanged from midweek, but two-time 'Georgian Player of the Year' Solomon Kvirkvelia could be brought into the back line.
French boss Willy Sagnol is sure to set his side up in a 5-3-2 formation, spearheaded by Napoli winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Euro 2024's leading scorer Georges Mikautadze.
Goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili, on the books of Spanish club Valencia since 2021, has saved no fewer than 16 of his last 17 shots faced at this summer's finals.
Georgia possible starting lineup:
Mamardashvili; Tsitaishvili, Dvali, Kashia, Kverkvelia, Kakabadze; Kochorashvili, Kiteishvili, Chakvetadze; Kvaratskhelia, Mikautadze
Prediction: Spain 3-1 Georgia
