  "account": "Spain and England are set to clash in the opening UEFA Nations League match at Wembley Stadium on Saturday, September 26th. Spain, current European champions and World Cup holders, are expected to field a strong lineup under manager Luis de la Fuente. However, the team will need to make a few defensive changes due to injuries. Pedro Porro is out with a hamstring issue and reserve goalkeeper Joan Garcia is sidelined by a knee injury. Eric Garcia and Ivan Fresneda are added to the squad as additional cover. In the central midfield, Pedro Gavi and Borja Iglesias have been omitted, but the return of Nico Williams on the left wing provides a boost. Central midfield sees a selection dilemma between Pedri and Fabian Ruiz, both excelling in club football. The attack features the addition of uncapped forward Roberto Fernandez to complement the main threat and Mikel Oyarzabal. The match is scheduled to kick off at 7:45pm BST. For UK viewers, ITV1 will broadcast the game live.",
