Spain vs Czechia: Line-Ups Confirmed as World Champions Look to Extend Unbeaten Run
Spain seek a 41-match unbeaten run after scoring seven goals in two Group C wins, while Czechia arrive without a point.
On Saturday, October 3, 2026, world champions Spain host Czechia in Oviedo for a UEFA Nations League match. Luis de la Fuente's side enters the fixture hoping to extend an unbeaten run to 41 matches.
Spain leads Group C with two victories, having scored seven goals against England and Croatia. Czechia arrives winless after consecutive defeats to those same opponents, sitting at the bottom of the standings.
Historical data favors the hosts, as Spain remains unbeaten against the Czech Republic across seven previous meetings. Czechia faces a difficult challenge, with all three of their previous trips to Spain resulting in a loss.
Greek referee Vassilis Fotias will officiate the match, while Czechia boss Santi Denia remains without suspended player Pavel Sulc. Adam Karabec is also a doubt with an injury sustained against England.
Extending their advantage at the summit of Group 3 appears likely for Spain, while Czechia hopes to escape Oviedo with its pride intact. Experts project another triumph for the hosts given their winning streak since March 2024.
Luis de la Fuente's men are measured to the Czech Republic of Santi Denia in the Carlos Tartiere, with the possibility of leaving the pass to quarterfinals.
