Spain will look to extend their remarkable unbeaten run when they face Croatia in the fourth round of the 2026-27 Nations League at Poljud Stadium on Tuesday, 6 October 2026.
Luis de la Fuente’s side have avoided defeat in their past 41 matches and have won their last 10 games. They also lead their group with a perfect record, having taken three victories from three matches.
Spain continued their impressive form in the previous round with a 3-1 victory over Czech Republic. Lamine Yamal, Rodri and Mikel Merino were on target as La Roja controlled the game and secured another three points.
Croatia, meanwhile, are seeking a response after a difficult run of results. They were beaten 7-0 by England in a historic defeat, their second successive loss, leaving them third in Group D.
The hosts also suffered a heavy defeat against Spain in the second round, losing 4-1. That result will do little to improve Croatia’s confidence before the sides meet again.

Recent form and head-to-head record
Spain arrive in Croatia with a 41-match unbeaten run behind them and victories in each of their last 10 fixtures. Their latest success came against Czech Republic, when goals from Lamine Yamal, Rodri and Mikel Merino secured a 3-1 win.
Croatia’s latest results have been far less encouraging. Their 7-0 defeat by England followed a previous loss, while the 4-1 defeat by Spain in the second round remains a further setback ahead of this fixture.
