Preview UEFA Nations League 2024-25: Spanyol vs Swiss

 

 

Pertandingan antara Spanyol dan Swiss dalam UEFA Nations League 2024-25 akan digelar pada Selasa (19/11/2024) pukul 02.45 WIB.

 

Spanyol berhasil meraih kemenangan 2-1 atas Denmark di laga tandang yang membuat mereka mengumpulkan 13 poin dari lima pertandingan di Grup 4 Liga A.

 

Dengan satu laga tersisa, tim asuhan Luis de la Fuente kini unggul enam poin dari Denmark. Meskipun sudah hampir dipastikan lolos ke babak berikutnya, Spanyol tetap bertekad meraih hasil positif saat melawan Swiss.

 

Sebagai juara bertahan UEFA Nations League setelah mengalahkan Kroasia di final musim 2022-23, serta juara Eropa setelah menumbangkan Inggris di final Euro 2024, Spanyol tampil sangat solid. Mereka belum terkalahkan dalam pertandingan kompetitif sejak Maret 2023 dan menunjukkan dominasi dengan mencetak 10 gol serta hanya kebobolan dua kali dalam lima pertandingan grup.

 

Sementara itu, Swiss mengalami kesulitan di kompetisi ini. Setelah kalah dalam tiga pertandingan pertama, mereka hanya meraih satu poin lewat hasil imbang 2-2 melawan Denmark. Swiss sudah dipastikan terdegradasi ke Liga B dan belum meraih kemenangan sejak mengalahkan Italia di Euro 2024. Meski pernah mencatatkan beberapa kemenangan atas Spanyol, termasuk di Piala Dunia 2010, penampilan Swiss di edisi UEFA Nations League kali ini jauh dari memuaskan.

 

Dalam lima pertemuan terakhir, Spanyol lebih unggul dengan tiga kemenangan, sementara Swiss hanya menang satu kali, dan satu pertemuan berakhir imbang.

 

Spanyol (4-2-3-1): Raya; Mingueza, Vivian, Laporte, Grimaldo; Merino, Ruiz; N Williams, Olmo, Pino; Morata.

Swiss (4-2-3-1): Kobel; Fernandes, Comert, Akanji, Rodriguez; Xhaka, Freuler; Monteiro, Amdouni, Kutesa; Zeqiri.

 

Prediksi

Pertandingan ini diprediksi akan berakhir dengan kemenangan tipis bagi Spanyol 2-1 atas Swiss.

CONCACAF Nations League——Costa Rica VS Panama

Costa Rica enters this matchup on an impressive run, remaining unbeaten in their last five games with a robust defensive record, allowing just two goals. Their offensive output has also been solid, averaging nearly two goals per game. Panama, on the other hand, has been inconsistent defensively, conceding 11 goals across their last five matches, despite some competitive scoring. With Costa Rica’s defensive strength and Panama’s vulnerability at the back, Costa Rica seems poised to leverage their form here.

 

Key Match Factors:

Uruguay Primera Division——Cerro Largo VS Liverpool URU Prediction

 

Cerro Largo

Cerro Largo has experienced a mixed bag of results this season, currently sitting in 11th place in the Primera División Clausura with only 12 points from 11 matches. Their performance has been inconsistent, but they have recently shown signs of improvement, particularly at home, where they have managed to secure seven points in their last three matches without conceding a goal. This home advantage could play a crucial role in their upcoming match against Liverpool URU, as they aim to climb the aggregate table towards a Copa Sudamericana qualifying spot.

 

Liverpool URU

Liverpool URU, on the other hand, is struggling significantly after their historic title win last season. Currently in 13th place with just 10 points from 11 games, they have failed to replicate their previous success and have won only once in their last eight matches. Their recent away form has been particularly poor, suffering defeats in their last two matches while conceding a total of four goals. With limited pressure to achieve a higher standing, Liverpool might approach this match with less urgency than their opponents.

 

H2H

In their recent encounters, Cerro Largo has had the upper hand against Liverpool URU. In the last five meetings, Cerro Largo has emerged victorious twice, while Liverpool has managed to win once, with the remaining matches ending in draws. Notably, Cerro Largo won the most recent clash at their home ground, Estadio Arquitecto Antonio Eleuterio Ubilla, by a score of 1-0. This historical context, coupled with their current form, suggests that Cerro Largo will be favored in this matchup.

 

Match Prediction

Taking into account both teams' current form and motivations, the prediction leans towards a victory for Cerro Largo. Their recent home successes and Liverpool's struggles on the road indicate that Cerro Largo is well-positioned to secure the win. A predicted scoreline of 1-0 in favor of Cerro Largo reflects their strong defense and the challenges Liverpool has faced in finding the back of the net. With Cerro Largo aiming for a crucial three points to enhance their Copa Sudamericana qualifications, they are expected to come out on top in this encounter.

ENG PR——Crystal Palace VS Fulham

 

Nketiah is said to have picked up his hamstring injury during a private session with a personal performance specialist which has left Palace 'deeply concerned'.

 

However, Glasner has insisted that there is no truth to that report and that he must shoulder the blame for Nketiah's injury after admitting that he should have substituted the striker earlier during last weekend's 2-2 draw at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

 

Addressing the report at a press conference on Friday, Glasner said: "I heard about it and I talked to him. He mentioned after the game he felt his hamstring a little bit.

 

"Then he had a scan and it was more serious than we expected. I always trust my players, why should I trust a strange source more than my player? I talked to Eddie and it's fine."

 

Glasner added: "At [Aston] Villa, Eddie was the guy who was sprinting the most on the pitch in 83 minutes. I think it's my mistake: it's my fault that I didn't substitute him earlier in the Wolves game, because he was sprinting again.
