Spain will look to make it two wins from two in the Luis de la Fuente era when they face Scotland in a Euro 2024 qualifier on Tuesday.

La Roja saw off Norway 3-0 last time out but weren't as convincing as the scoreline suggests, meaning De la Fuente could make a handful of changes to try and spruce things up and secure two straight victories.

Here's how the boss could set up.


Spain predicted lineup vs Scotland (4-3-3)

GK: Kepa Arrizabalaga - Kepa played a big role in the victory over Norway, making a number of impressive saves.

RB: Pedro Porro - Some rejuvenation in defence could see Porro brought in over Dani Carvajal.

CB: Nacho Fernandez - One of the most underrated defenders around, Nacho made a big block to deny Martin Odegaard last time out.

CB: Aymeric Laporte - Laporte may well be playing his club football back in Spain next year as Barcelona look to lure him away from Manchester City.

LB: Alejandro Balde - The left-back is perhaps the top youngster in his position in the world. The more experience he gets now, the better he'll become.

DM: Rodri - He won't have endeared himself to Arsenal fans with his tackle on Odegaard but, from a Spain perspective, that's exactly why he's in the team.

CM: Mikel Merino - Merino may once again sit back in a deeper role alongside Rodri.

CM: Dani Ceballos - Ceballos is in sublime form right now. He changed the game off the bench against Norway and deserves another start.

RW: Dani Olmo - The scorer of the opener last time out, Olmo should retain his place.

ST: Alvaro Morata - Depsite watching Joselu score twice off the bench, Morata's new status as team captain should earn him another start.

LW: Gavi - His industrious work divides opinion but Gavi remains an integral part of both the present and future of Spanish football.
