La Roja have won three of their last five meetings against the French.
The Spain national football team are all set to battle the France national football team in the UEFA Nations League 2024-25 semi-final fixture. The intense, high-stakes contest is set to take place at the MHP Arena.
The Spaniards defeated France in their previous high-stakes match in the UEFA Euro 2024. The Spain national team outplayed the French to win the contest by 2-1. They will be coming in with some more confidence.
La Roja secured a close win in the quarterfinals of the competition after defeating the Netherlands on penalties.
The France National Football Team might be low on confidence for the obvious reasons. Moreover, the Spaniards will not go easy on them. But this time, the Frenchmen will be ready to outplay their upcoming opponents.
France are coming in after securing a win against Croatia in the previous round of the UEFA Nations League.

Players to Watch
Lamine Yamal (Spain)
The young Barcelona winger scored a crucial goal for Spain in the previous round against the Netherlands. Lamine Yamal will look to continue to haunt France’s defence. He did come up with a good performance against them the last time.
Although he has only two goal contributions in the Nations League, Yamal will look to play a crucial role in the attacking front.
Kylian Mbappe (France)
Kylian Mbappe is in great form. He has come up with some great performances for Real Madrid this season. However, the 26-year-old has not had much influence for France.
Alongside Ousmane Dembele, Mbappe can come up with a top performance. The duo can become an issue for the opposition’s defence. Expect the Los Blancos forward to bring back his form for the France national team.
