Pedro Porro and Oscar Mingueza will compete for the right-back spot, while 17-year-old Pau Cubarsi could make his second senior international appearance alongside Aymeric Laporte. In Rodri's absence, Real Sociedad star Martin Zubimendi is likely to take on a key role in midfield, supporting Pedri and Fabian Ruiz, while Lamine Yamal and Alex Baena could support Alvaro Morata in attack.

As for Denmark, they will be without Joachim Andersen, Mikkel Damsgaard, Christian Norgaard and Morten Frendrup due to injury, while uncapped defender Rasmus Nicolaisen has also withdrawn.

However, Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund has returned to the national team after missing last month's training camp through injury, and he is likely to feature as a striker, either alongside or replacing Yussuf Poulsen, who scored against Serbia in the previous game.

Christian Eriksen will make his 137th international appearance in midfield, partnering Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Morten Hjulmand, while Jannik Vestergaard could be deployed in a three-man defence alongside Rasmus Kristensen and Victor Nelsson.

Latest football commentary Spain vs Denmark

After being crowned Euro 2024 champions with a 2-1 win over England, Spain were held to a 0-0 draw by Serbia in their Nations League opener last month. However, La Roja bounced back on matchday two, beating Switzerland 4-1 despite being reduced to 10 men after 20 minutes. Fabian Ruiz scored twice, alongside strikes from Joselu and Ferran Torres, while Robin Le Normand was sent off.

Under Luis de la Fuente, the team has extended its unbeaten run to 12 games, with 10 wins and two draws, and has not lost since March, when it lost 0-1 to Colombia in a friendly. Spain have scored at least two goals in their last nine matches, beating teams as strong as Germany, France and England.

Ranked third in the world according to FIFA, Spain are confident of their chances of winning against Denmark, as they have won all four of their most recent encounters by a combined score of 10-2.

Denmark endured a disappointing Euro 2024, drawing all three of their group games and just making it through to the last 16, where they lost 2-0 to Germany. This led to the departure of coach Kasper Hjulmand, with interim coach Lars Knudsen starting well with two Nations League wins over Switzerland and Serbia.

A 2-0 win over Switzerland, albeit with just nine men, was followed by a similar win over Serbia, partly avenging the 0-0 draw at Euro 2024. Denmark, ranked 20th in the world by FIFA, currently top Group A Group 4 and are keen to consolidate their lead after the previous two Nations League campaigns.

However, victory on Saturday could be a challenge for Denmark, who have won just two of their previous 16 meetings with Spain, with their last victory coming in March 1993. Despite a good start under caretaker coach Knudsen, their strength will be tested away from home against Spain, who still have plenty of quality players despite missing a number of key players through injury.

La Roja will be considered the favourites in this match, and will likely score more goals than their opponents to claim the three points needed to take top spot in the group.
