Spain One Win From 2026 World Cup as They Visit Georgia

Spain travel with several starters unavailable, including Lamine Yamal after an unnotified procedure.

Overview

  • Luis de la Fuente’s side lead Group E with 12 points from four matches and a 15-0 aggregate, having yet to concede in qualifying.
  • A victory in Tbilisi would effectively seal Spain’s place at the 2026 finals due to their superior goal difference, regardless of Turkey’s result.
  • Lamine Yamal withdrew following a radiofrequency treatment for pubic discomfort that the Spanish federation says it was not told about, with Jorge de Frutos called up.
  • Rodri, Pedri—expected out for up to six weeks—and Nico Williams also miss out, with Ferran Torres likely to spearhead the attack supported by a deep squad.
  • Georgia sit on three points from four games, will be without striker Georges Mikautadze, and have lost eight of nine to Spain; kickoff is 5pm UK on Amazon Prime PPV.
