Match Preview

England begin their 2026/27 UEFA Nations League campaign against Spain at Wembley Stadium in a major Group A3 encounter. The match is scheduled for Saturday, 26 September, with kickoff at 7:45 PM BST, which is 12:15 AM IST on 27 September. Spain enter the campaign as the reigning world champions and 2024/25 Nations League runners-up, while England will be looking to make a strong start on home soil.

England come into the fixture after a strong run at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where they finished third. Thomas Tuchel's side will now turn their attention to the Nations League and a difficult Group A3 containing Spain, Croatia and Czechia. Several regular England players, including Cole Palmer and Declan Rice, are unavailable for this opening international window, while new additions have been brought into the squad.

Spain arrive at Wembley with an impressive recent record and enter the new Nations League campaign as world and European champions. Luis de la Fuente's team will have familiar attacking and midfield quality, while their previous competitive meeting with England ended in a 2-1 Spain victory in the UEFA EURO 2024 final. With both teams starting a new Nations League campaign and plenty of quality on display, this Wembley meeting is expected to be a closely contested international fixture.

Match Prediction

England have home advantage and the support of a Wembley crowd, but Spain's recent form and their experience in major international competitions make this a difficult opening fixture. England's attacking options can create problems, while Spain's possession-based approach and technical quality could control important periods of the match. A tight contest is expected, with both sides capable of scoring.
