Switzerland-Spain: Calculators for success

Luis de la Fuente He is only thinking about winning, especially after the draw against Serbia and the need to add three points tonight against Switzerland (8.45pm/La1) and get back in the running for the top spot in Group 4. Nations League. It’s a long way off, but any carelessness here will result in a penalty and a chase. The coach has experience with that. With the youth team, the manager would sometimes replace almost the entire team between the first and second international games. That’s what he did on his debut as a senior coach. After a good debut against Norway in the Euros qualifiers (3-0), he lost to Scotland (2-0), his only official defeat.

Since then, he has always done his best to win, sometimes because he had to, as he did tonight in Geneva. From the source He was a Nations League and EuroCup champion, winning every accolade in two years, but the Riojaan man will still be looking to manage minutes and rotate.

The first one is required. Dani Olmo He did not train yesterday. The Barcelona striker suffered a heavy knock in the match against Serbia. He passed a test yesterday to rule out a serious illness, but will miss the match against Switzerland as a precautionary measure.

on the other hand, Rodrigo Hernandez He has yet to play for City this season, arriving at training camp with hip discomfort and not played since the Euros final, so it seems unlikely he will be ready to start today. Zubimendi is expected to continue in that position, with Aleix Garcia and Pepel both waiting in the wings, both of whom De la Fuente is keen to test.

You can rest in Geneva tonight. Lamine YamalHe played every game for Serbia and was the only attacker to arrive at the national team training camp with pain from the blow he received in the final game against Barça.

Eleven News points out that, Pedri And they win the whole Oscar MinguezaGrimaldo will make his first team debut to give Carvajal some air, while he will swap places with Cucurella on the left wing.

Of those remaining, the only question is who will be No. 9 after the tests he has performed. From the source In Serbia with Ayoze Pérez.

SwitzerlandThey will not be able to count on Gladbach’s central defender Elvedi or one of their stars, Xhaka. The local players also arrive with a need to win after losing their first game against Denmark (2-0). The Helvetians, who boast a brave, attacking style of football and good ball handling, will be playing at home in front of enthusiastic and excited fans after a strong EuroCup performance.
