Fernando Hierro has not taken chances against Portugal and has named a match-winning squad, with an extremely strong midfield.
David De Gea starts in goal for Spain while Pique, Nacho, Ramos, and Alba make the back four. Busquets partners Koke, Iniesta, and Isco in the middle of the park while Costa has been tasked with the hunt for goals.
Patricio starts in goal for Portugal being shielded by Pepe, Raphael, Fonte, and Cedric. Fernandes, Bernado, William, and Moutinho will pull the strings from midfield with Guedes helping Ronaldo upfront with the hunt for goals.
