With the delayed Euro 2020 tournament looming, Spain begin their preparations in the Metropolitano Stadium as they host local rivals Portugal. Don't miss a moment of the action with our England vs Austria live stream guide.
While today's game is a friendly fixture, there's no love lost in the Iberian derby that sees two of the strongest footballing nations in the world go toe-to-toe.
In a bold move, Luis Enrique announced a 24-man squad for this summer's European Championship, leaving two spaces unfilled. The headline news from the squad announcement was the exclusion of Spain's most-capped player Sergio Ramos and the absence of any Real Madrid players.
Today's game against Portugal gives Enrique a chance to experiment with his starting lineup ahead of competitive fixtures, particularly in the goalkeeper position where uncapped Robert Sanchez is expected to start.
Spain are no stranger to success in Europe having won two of the last three European Championships. That being said, La Roja failed to move beyond the round of 16 stage at Euro 2016 with Italy eliminating the Spaniards. Spain open their Euro 2020 campaign on June 14 against Sweden.
Portugal have also seen recent success in the European Championships and currently hold the trophy after winning the tournament in 2016. A Seleção reached the semi-finals in 2012 when they were knocked out by today's opponents and eventual tournament winners Spain. Fernando Santos's men also lifted the inaugural UEFA Nations League trophy in 2019.
Based on form alone, the Portuguese would fancy their chances this summer, though they find themselves in a tough Group F that also consists of World Champions France and heavyweights Germany.
Santos may rest Manchester City duo Ruben Dias and Bernardo Silva today following their late involvement in the Champions League final, though they will be certain starters come Euro 2020. Diogo Jota also returned for Liverpool in their final Premier League match so is likely to play today in order to get back to full fitness ahead of Portugal's tournament opener against Hungary.
