With two draws in two matches, Spain’s Euro 2020 campaign has got off to an incredibly shaky start. Their most recent draw agains Poland did, however, extend their unbeaten run to 10 games in all competitions. They sit third in Group E and Luis Enrique’s men are in desperate need of a good performance against Slovakia to send them through to the last-16 stages. Although, the Spaniards could follow a similar path to Portugal, who drew all three group-stage games at Euro 2016 before claiming the trophy.

Slovakia’s 2-1 defeat of Poland extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to six games before Emil Forsberg’s decisive penalty handed them a 1-0 loss on matchday 2. Group E remains wide open and Stefan Tarkovic’s men, who currently sit in second and a point above Spain, only need a draw to seal progression to the last-16 stages.

Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Euro 2020 Group E fixture between Slovakia and Spain.
