Saturday night also brings us this intriguing and mouthwatering top-of-the-table clash between Spain and Denmark in Group 4 with a valuable three points at stake for both nations as Spain look to build upon a resounding 4-1 win away from home at Switzerland, while Denmark will go in search of a third win on the trot in the Nations League.
Spain currently occupy second place in the Group 4 table but the hosts still remain unbeaten after their opening two games in the group stage and all three points against the table-topping Danes on Saturday would send the Spaniards top of the table with a one-point cushion.
A 0-0 stalemate away from home at Serbia handed Spain a slow start to this new Nations League campaign but Luis de la Fuente's side got back into their groove when they dispatched Switzerland in no uncertain fashion in a 4-1 romp on their travels on matchday 2 and having now put together an impressive 12-match unbeaten sequence overall, including 10 wins, the hosts look in good shape to add to their points tally here.
The recently crowned European champions have won six of their previous 10 home games in the Nations League competition.
Denmark have produced an excellent start to their Nations League campaign by winning both of their opening two games in Group 4 with victories gained over Switzerland and Serbia both on home soil and both by 2-0 margins, which has helped lift the Danes to the top of the table.
However, Morten Wieghorst's side are likely to face their biggest test yet in this Nations League campaign as they make their way over to Murcia to take on the European champions in their own backyard on Saturday night.
Denmark had previously drawn each of their three group games in the Euro 2024 finals where they picked up points in stalemates with the likes of Slovenia, England and Serbia but they were then bundled out of the tournament after a 2-0 defeat to host nation, Germany.
Nevertheless, Denmark have slipped to just two defeats in their last 18 internationals in all competitions which includes picking up 11 wins in the process, but it's interesting to note that both of Denmark's losses were inflicted upon them on their travels.
Indeed, results away from home have been extremely disappointing from Denmark's perspective as the visitors have managed to collect just two wins in their previous 10 outings on the road, whilst also slipping to six defeats in the process.
