Spain v England: Nations League kick-off time, venue and how to watch

Spain host England in the sixth and final round of the Nations League group stage on Sunday, 15 November 2026, with kick-off at 19:45 GMT at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano in Madrid.

The match will be shown on La chaine L’Equipe in France, Ziggo Sport 3 in the Netherlands, beIN Sports across MENA and Australia, and Canal+ Sport in sub-Saharan Africa. Viewers in the United States can watch on Prime Video, fuboTV and ViX, while Amazon Prime Video holds the rights in the United Kingdom. The game will also be broadcast by Rai 1 in Italy and VTM, VTM GO and DAZN in Belgium.

A closely fought rivalry

Sunday’s meeting will be the 30th between the two countries. According to Transfermarkt, Spain have won 12 of the previous 29 encounters, compared with 14 victories for England. The other three matches ended in draws.

The record underlines how evenly matched the teams have been over the years, with little to separate the two sides ahead of their latest contest in Madrid.

Spain, the reigning world champions, have not lost since March 2024 and are unbeaten in 43 matches in all competitions. Their latest result came on Thursday in Prague, where Luis de la Fuente’s side recorded a 2-0 victory.

The result was secured without Spain needing to reach top gear. Alex Baena opened the scoring from the penalty spot before Marc Pubill added a late second goal.

England arrive with the memory of their 3-2 defeat by Spain at Wembley in September still fresh. The Three Lions are seeking a response to that result, which included a missed penalty by Harry Kane, and are also aiming to claim their first victory on Spanish soil since 2018.

Prediction

Spain’s unbeaten run and strong home record at the Metropolitano make them difficult opponents, while England’s desire to avenge the Wembley defeat adds another dimension to the contest.

With Spain offering collective defensive strength and England determined to end their wait for a win in Spain, the match is expected to be tightly contested. Neither side appears likely to establish clear superiority, making a draw a possible outcome.

Africafoot’s prediction is Spain 1-1 England.

The betting company 1xbet lists Spain as favourites at 1.63 to win. The odds for a draw are 3.70, while England are priced at 3.90.
