Preview
Czech Republic began their Nations League campaign with a 2-1 home win over Switzerland on Friday.
Kuchta broke the deadlock for the hosts before Okafor equalized a minute before half time. But Sow’s own goal gave CZR the difference goal and ensured their victory.
The Czech target successive wins to take control of the group but will be tested against a quality Spain team.
On the other hand, Spain drew 1-1 at home to Portugal in their opener as Morata and Horta scored for either side to ensure a point a piece.
This was Spain’s first dropped points after 4 successive wins. La Roja eye a first victory and get themselves up and running in the competition.
Both these teams last met in Euro 2016 Group D where Spain won 1-0 through Pique’s strike three minutes from time.

Prediction: Czech Republic 1-2 Spain
The hosts are missing the likes of in-form striker, Schick; who was their key go-to-man.
Spain’s recent results show their improvement as a side and with the quality on show, we expect them to go at the Czech Side.
La Roja is a stronger side and should win this clash but not without effort from Czech Republic.
