Matchday 2 in this group of the UEFA Nations League will see the Spanish side trying to go back to winning ways against Shevchenko's men.

How did Spain and Ukraine's previous UEFA Nations League campaign end?

Spain ended as runners-up in Group A4 of the competition behind England and two points ahead of Croatia, who were in line to be relegated. La Roja was the most prolific team in front of goal in that group, but they were not able to make that count in order to reach the final four.

Ukraine were promoted to League A of the UEFA Nations League after winning Group B1 over the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Curiously, the Ukrainian side conceded the same amount of goals as they scored (5-5), but that was not a problem for them to eventually winning their group.

What is Spain and Ukraine's form ahead of this match?

Spain will enter this match on a seven-game run without a loss. The Spanish side has won four out of those games, with the only exceptions being their one-all draws against Norway, Sweden, and Germany last Thursday. Spain has scored 13 goals in their last three games, while their defense has only conceded once during that run.

Ukraine will also make it to this clash on a seven-game streak without a loss. The blue and yellow side has won five of those games, including a 2-1 victory over Portugal in 2019. Their previous match of the UEFA Nations League prior to their clash against Spain saw Shevchenko's men claim a 2-1 win over Switzerland.
