Switzerland hosts Spain in round 5 of the UEFA Nations League A. The match will be played on Saturday, November 14th at St. Jakob-Park (Basel)
In recent years, the Red Crosses have gradually secured their status of something more than the tough middle peasant of European football. Since 2014, the team not only made its way to the final tournaments but also advanced to the playoff stages. The men of Vladimir Petkovic will play at the next Euro either. In the first draw of the Nations League, the national team of Switzerland was able to unexpectedly win its group and played in the final in Portugal. But this fall, everything went wrong from the beginning (with the defeat in Kyiv). It seems that then it turned out to play with dignity and take two draws with the Germans. But Ukraine, which has beaten Spain, is already four points ahead. The misfire in the upcoming game will destroy any chances of staying in Division A.

The Red Fury quite confidently moved through the new Nations League. It saved the draw in Germany, having scored in the last seconds. Then there were confident victories over Ukraine and Switzerland. But a month ago, it seemed that Luis Enrique and his men underestimated the team of Andriy Shevchenko. Bushchan repelled all the attacks of the opponent, and then Tsygankov converted almost the only attempt of the Yellow-blues. Because of this, Spain didn’t manage to break away from the Germans. It is noteworthy that this time Lucho has moved away from his practice of rotating the roster. This time he called up only two new players, who did not join the camp of the national team in November. However, Unai Simon was already called up as the third goalkeeper, and Marcos Llorente is the world champion at the U-21 level.
Switzerland managed to beat Spain at the World Cup and did not lose in a friendly match in 2018. However, Oyarzabal's goal brought victory to the Spaniards in October. Spain should take revenge for a misfire with Ukraine, especially since Switzerland needs to take risks. We think there is every reason to bet on the visitors’ victory.
Prediction for the match: Spain to win
