Spain host Czech Republic in the third round of the Nations League on Saturday, 3 October 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 18:45 GMT at Stade Carlos-Tartiere.
The reigning 2026 world champions have made a perfect start to their group campaign, winning both of their opening matches. Spain began with a 3-2 victory over England before beating Croatia 4-1, and arrive for this fixture in impressive attacking form.
Lamine Yamal has been central to Spain’s strong performances, with the forward in particularly good form as La Roja establish themselves at the top of the group.
Czech Republic have endured the opposite start. They are bottom of the group without a point after consecutive defeats, losing 1-2 to Croatia and then 0-2 against England.
Spain are also unbeaten in all seven previous meetings with Czech Republic since the formation of the current Czech national team. Their record in those matches is five wins and two draws.
The contrasting form of the two sides makes Spain clear favourites before the game. The hosts will be seeking to maintain their perfect record in the competition and continue their unbeaten run against Czech Republic, while the visitors will be looking for their first points of the campaign.
Africafoot’s prediction is a 3-1 win for Spain.
