Sport | Football Spain today meet Germany in an eagerly anticipated Euro 2024 quarter-final. La Roja survived a scare against Georgia but came from behind to win 4-1 , while hosts Germany beat Denmark 2-0 in controversial fashion. Stuttgart will welcome these two teams which are arguably the top two favourites to go all the way and lift the trophy.
Luis de la Fuente’s Spain have dazzled with their youthful, energetic attacking play despite not being seen as one of the top two or three teams when arriving at the Euros. But Germany will be a huge test for them as the home nation and off the back of some impressive, ruthless displays of their own. Spain vs Germany is scheduled for a 5pm BST kick-off later today on Friday July 5, 2024.

Spain restored all of their key players for their win over Georgia, having rested ten of them after winning their group with a game spare. Nacho Fernandez and Ayoze Perez were both fitness doubts for Sunday evening and neither featured.
Germany have centre-back Jonathan Tah back from suspension and he should partner Antonio Rudiger. Kai Havertz faced calls to be dropped for Niclas Fullkrug in the last-16 but a goal and a decen.
