Spain against Sweden lineup: Rodri will play Busquets

The Spanish team faces its first match of the Eurocup against Sweden with some doubts in the line-up. Luis Enrique faces the duel with just one preparation match and the obligation to find a replacement for Sergio Busquets , who after testing positive for coronavirus is not available.

In the goal, everything points to Unai Simón being the chosen one. After the doubts raised before the game against Portugal, the fact that Athletic's was the starter that day suggests that, except for surprise, he will also be the one to defend the Spanish goal. Ahead, on the defensive line Pau Torres and Aymeric Laporte will form a pair of centrals, with Marcos Llorente and Gayá being the wingers.

Rodrigo Hernández will have the mission of making Busquets as a pivot. At his side, Fabián and Thiago are running as favorites to complete the midfield. However, it would not be ruled out to see Koke or Pedri in the middle.

Up front, the only one who seems safe is Ferran Torres . The Manchester City winger is fixed for Luis Enrique, while Dani Olmo , hitherto undisputed on the left, could lose his position to the detriment of Sarabia or Gerard Moreno. At the top of the attack and as a reference for the national team will be Álvaro Morata .
