How Spain could line up against Georgia

Lamine Yamal would become Spain's youngest-ever player if he takes to the field during his country's Euro 2024 qualification match against Georgia on Friday night.

The 16-year-old's outstanding form for Barcelona early this season saw him named in the Spain squad, and he will be eyeing a piece of history against Georgia, but if he does not play on Friday, the record would still be his with an appearance against Cyprus next week.

Spain are currently fourth in Group A on three points, and they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Scotland in their last Euro 2024 qualifier, but La Roja have since won the UEFA Nations League.

Head coach Luis de la Fuente is not expected to spring any major surprises when it comes to his team selection for Friday's match, with captain Alvaro Morata set to lead the line.

Morata is comfortably the highest goalscorer in the squad with 30, and he is expected to be supported by Marco Asensio, Gavi and Dani Olmo in the forward areas.

Dani Carvajal and Alejandro Balde are set to be given the nod in the full-back positions, while Aymeric Laporte should retain his starting role at centre-back despite swapping Manchester City for Al-Nassr.

Rodri is a certainty in the middle of midfield, and he could be joined by Fabian Ruiz, as Barcelona's Pedri is a notable absentee through injury.

Unai Simon should also keep his spot between the sticks despite strong competition from Kepa Arrizabalaga and David Raya.

Spain possible starting lineup: Simon; Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Balde; Rodri, Ruiz; Asensio, Gavi, Olmo; Morata
