Spain vs. Serbia | UEFA Nations League | Pre Match

Spain will be aiming to cement their spot at the top of Group 4 in League A when they continue their 2024-25 UEFA Nations League campaign at home to Serbia on Tuesday night.

Luis de la Fuente's side will enter the contest off the back of a 1-0 success over Denmark, while Serbia recorded an eye-catching 2-0 victory over Switzerland last time out to move onto four points in the section.

Spain were far from their best against Denmark on Saturday evening, and it did appear that La Roja might have to settle for a goalless draw, but Martin Zubimendi came up with the game's only goal in the 79th minute.

The Euro 2024 winners therefore moved to the top of the section ahead of Denmark, boasting seven points from their opening three matches, and they will now be bidding to move onto 10 points ahead of their final two games in the group stage, which will come against Denmark and Switzerland next month.

Spain are the reigning Nations League champions, having triumphed in the 2022-23 competition, beating Croatia in the final to secure the trophy for the first time.

La Roja are unbeaten since a 1-0 loss to Colombia in March, but they were held to a goalless draw by Serbia in the reverse match last month, and the visitors will enter this clash off the back of an excellent result.

Spain are also missing some vital players through injury, meanwhile, including Lamine Yamal, with the Barcelona wonderkid picking up a minor problem during the clash with Denmark last time out.

Serbia failed to make it out of the group stage of Euro 2024, picking up just two points from their three matches, but they have shown some positive signs during their 2024-25 Nations League campaign.

Dragan Stojkovic's side opened their Group 4 challenge with a goalless draw against Spain, but they were unable to build on that result, suffering a 2-0 defeat to Denmark in their second game in September.

The Eagles bounced back in impressive fashion on Saturday, though, beating Switzerland 2-0, with Aleksandar Mitrovic adding to an own goal from Nico Elvedi to secure all three points.

Serbia are third in their group, two points behind second-placed Denmark and three from leaders Spain, so a victory on Tuesday night would put them in an interesting position ahead of their final two group games in November.

Stojkovic's side have only lost one of their last five games in all competitions, but their first-ever meeting with Spain in May 2012 ended in a 2-0 defeat, with Adrian Lopez and Santi Cazorla on the scoresheet.
