Team news
Spain: De la Fuente will have both Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand back in the squad after the suspensions that forced them to miss the match against France. Spanish striker Alvaro Morata is likely to lead the attacking line, alongside wingers Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal. The 16-year-old, who turns 17 a day before the final, is likely to compete for the tournament’s MVP award with England’s Jude Bellingham.
Possible Spain XI: Simon; Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella; Rodri, Ruiz; Yamal, Olmo, Williams; Morata.
England: Southgate will have the full squad available for the final in Berlin and Bellingham will lead the attacking line alongside Phil Foden and Harry Kane, who will play as a central striker on Sunday. No other changes are expected, with the Three Lions seeking to win their first ever European Championship after losing the 2021 final to Italy at Wembley.
Possible England XI: Pickford; Walker, Stones, Guehi; Saka, Mainoo, Rice, Shaw; Foden, Bellingham; Kane.
Prediction
Spain was the most convincing team of the tournament and showed itself again against France in the semi-finals. That’s why they are favorites. Choose: Spain 2, England 1.
