De la Fuente has several options to bring in and freshen up his starting XI and Aymeric Laporte could get the nod at centre-back over Dean Huijsen.

Rodri and Pedri both came off the bench against Croatia, and could replace Martin Zubimendi and Fermin Lopez, with Nico Williams possibly rewarded for scoring as a substitute in that game.
