After the victory (2-1) against Nigeria this Saturday, the azzurri hope to finish this year well.

Spain in 4-2-3-1
Only the defense has really changed. Compared to his last match, Montserrat Tomé aligns Codina and Mendez in axis with Batlle on the right and Carmona on the left.On the front line Garcia replaces Sarriegi.
For his fourth match in charge of Les Bleues, Laurent Bonadéi will have to do without several important absences. First, declining striker Eugénie Le Sommer will not play against Spain for her 198th selection to equal Sandrine soubeyrand’s record. In addition to Le Sommer, Mbock and De Almeida are also absent, both injured. The composition has therefore changed, only renard and Geyoro are aligned again. The Italian coach is counting in particular on the offensive trio Mateo-Becho-Diani.
