Team news and form
Spain beat the Czech Republic 2-0 on Thursday to keep a perfect record in this campaign, with five wins from five and 15 points. They have gone 43 matches unbeaten inside 90 minutes (34 wins, nine draws) and have not lost at home under Luis de la Fuente, their last home defeat being to Switzerland in September 2022. A draw is enough for them to finish top. Alex Baena scored against the Czech Republic and in the reverse fixture. Lamine Yamal, Aymeric Laporte, Nico Williams and Mikel Oyarzabal missed that game but are in line to return. One site reports that Rodri, Dani Olmo and Eric Garcia remain injured.
England are second with 12 points after beating Croatia 2-1, and must win to overtake Spain. They have led at half-time in four of their five group games, and Jude Bellingham has been directly involved in 14 goals in his last 13 England appearances (eight goals, six assists). Harry Kane has scored in five games in a row. Their only defeat in the group was the 3-2 loss to Spain at Wembley, and they have not lost an away game in over four years. England look to have no new injury concerns.

Head-to-head – Recent meetings
- England 2-3 Spain (26 September 2026, Nations League)
- Spain 2-1 England (July 2024, Euro 2024 final)
England have won only two of the last ten meetings (one draw, seven defeats). Each of the last five meetings had both teams scoring and more than 2.5 goals.
Why we’re backing it
Both teams score freely. Spain have scored in every group game and England have averaged about three goals a game, so goals at both ends are likely. England must win, which forces them forward in Madrid, and Spain’s defence has been breached in four of five group games. The pattern in recent meetings is clear, with both teams scoring in all of the last five.
The risk is a cagey game. Spain only need a draw, and with Yamal back they can counter, so they could happily sit back. Just one of England’s last seven matches produced over 9.5 corners, which hints at a measured approach. A 1-0 would lose the pick. Over 3.5 goals at 2.20 is our value pick, and England to win at 4.45 is the long shot.
Betting tips summary
- Safe pick: Both teams to score @ 1.58 <- our recommended bet
