Spain vs Albania Lineup: ‘La Roja’ Rest Key Players

(Spain vs Albania Lineup) With Spain already securing the top spot in Group B of this year’s Euro, it is likely that they will give new players a chance to play in the match against Albania.

At 8:00 PM (UK time) on June 24, Spain vs Albania will face off in the final group match of Euro 2024. While Albania will be determined to earn points to keep their playoff hopes alive, Spain is in a more comfortable position, having already secured the top spot in the group, and will likely rest their key players for this match.

Expected Lineup for Spain

Head coach Luis De La Fuente is expected to make several changes in personnel for the upcoming match against Albania. Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya may be given the nod to start. Alejandro Grimaldo, who has been impressive at Bayer Leverkusen, is likely to get a chance to play alongside Nacho, Daniel Vivian, and veteran Jesus Navas in defense.

The Real Sociedad duo Martin Zubimendi and Mikel Merino are expected to start, combined with Barcelona’s young talent Fermin Lopez.

The attacking trio for “La Roja” could be Ferran Torres, Mikel Oyarzabal, and Dani Olmo.

Expected Lineup for Albania

Coach Sylvinho is likely to stick with the lineup that earned Albania a valuable point against Croatia. Thomas Strakosha will continue in goal, with a back four consisting of Mario Mitaj, Berat Djimsiti, Arlind Ajeti, and Elseid Hysaj.

Kristijan Asllani and Qazim Laci, who have shown strong performances in this Euro, will likely retain their starting spots, combined with Ylber Ramadani.

Nedim Bajrami and Jasir Asani, two players with unpredictable playing styles, will be the key hopes in Albania’s attack along with Rey Manaj, the former Barcelona forward. Chelsea’s young star Armando Broja will likely continue to be on the bench for this match.
