Spain priced at 4/9 to win the Nations League against Portugal - with underdogs valued at 13/8
Spain are the odds on favourites to win the Nations League on Sunday against Portugal out in Germany. Both sides - who have each won the competition once - won thrilling semi-finals, with Portugal coming out on top against Germany on Wednesday in a game that saw Cristiano Ronaldo bag the winner. A day later, Spain won a nine-goal classic against France, with Lamine Yamal netting twice and the victors clinging on after France had brought it back from 5-1. But the European champions are backed on the market to retain the title they won on penalties against Croatia two years ago. According to Sky Bet, Spain are 4/9 heavy favourites to lift the title in Munich. Portugal, meanwhile, can be backed at 13/8. In terms of the full time result, Spain are still odds on favourites at 17/20, while Portugal are valued at 11/4. If punters want to back a draw, that can be picked up at 14/5. To win the Nations League: Spain 4/9 Portugal 13/8 To win in full time: Spain 17/20 Portugal 11/4 Draw 14/5 All odds are correct at the time of publication

Fans stunned at empty stadium for Andorra vs England with Lionesses' game vs Spain at same stadium hosting TWICE as many

England's men took on Andorra in the La Liga Stadium on Saturday afternoon, seeing 6,945 England fans make the trip for the World Cup qualifier. 4 The RDCE Stadium looked empty as England played Andorra Credit: Getty 4 England's stars had few fans cheering them on Credit: PA 4 Sparse supporters were dotted around the stands Credit: Getty The RCDE stadium, home of Spanish side Espanyol, looked noticeably empty during the match between England's men and Andorra. Sparse pockets of fans spread across the stands in Barcelona with just shy of 7,000 tickets sold to England fans for the match inside the 40,000-seat stadium. That is just half of the 14,000 fans that piled into the same stadium to watch England Women take on Spain in the Nations League on Tuesday - a match the Lionesses ultimately lost 2-1 as they prepare for this summer's Euros. Fans online were quick to notice how empty the stadium looked, reacting on social media.

While another added: "I'm sure everyone is having a lovely time in Barcelona, but a half empty stadium does look rubbish". A third asked: "Why is the stadium so empty?" And a fourth posted: "Must be weird for the England players playing in an empty stadium, looks like an U21 game." 4 England Women played Spain in front of a much larger crowd at the RDCE Stadium on Tuesday Credit: Shutterstock Editorial CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS It's no surprise that the stadium wasn't packed with Andorra fans, with the 40,000 capacity roughly the same as half of the nation's entire population. The match, which is considered as Andorra's home fixture, should have been played at Andorra's national stadium but was moved to Barcelona - a three hour drive through the Pyrenees. England star Ivan Toney hits back at Bruno Fernandes with blunt reply after Man Utd star's Saudi transfer snub That's because Andorra's Estadi Nacional in Andorra la Vella holds just 3,000 fans, meaning a move to Espanyol's ground accommodated even more supporters for the clash. Andorra are moving into a new stadium in the town of Encamp which hosts 5,600 fans, but the ground wasn't ready in time for this fixture to be arranged there.

France boss threatens to drop Premier League target amid £25m transfer talks
France face Germany in the Nations League third-place play-off on Sunday, with boss Didier Deschamps ready to take drastic action as Chelsea pursue one of his key players France head coach Didier Deschamps has threatened to drop Mike Maignan from his team for Sunday's Nations League game against Germany. Les Bleus will face the hosts in a third-place play-off. They lost a thrilling semi-final 5-4 to Spain on Thursday night, with Maignan starting between the sticks. He has emerged as France's first-choice keeper since Hugo Lloris retired after the 2022 World Cup. Maignan has impressed at club level as well, winning the Ligue 1 title with Lille in 2021 which earned him a move to AC Milan. The 29-year-old helped the Rossoneri to win the Serie A title in his first year at the club. He has since gone on to become captain of the Italian giants, but his future at the San Siro is in doubt. Chelsea have grown interested in signing the keeper as they look to replace David Sanchez. The Blues saw an opening offer below £15million rejected this week, with Milan demanding a fee in the region of £25m. A final bid is expected to be made in the coming days, though first comes France's clash with Germany. Amid the speculation around his future, his form has suffered a downturn. And that has led Deschamps to suggest that he could drop Maignan in favour of the uncapped Lucas Chevalier or former Nottingham Forest star Brice Samba on Sunday. "Changing goalkeepers? We'll see. We'll see how Mike is, how he feels. It's still possible. No decision has been made yet, it's been a while," Deschamps said ahead of the third-place play-off in Stuttgart. "Obviously, that could also be the case regarding the goalkeeper position. Whether Mike needs a break or not... I don't have those details yet." Thursday's defeat to Spain was a frustrating one, with France at one stage losing 4-0 before a late comeback. The loss raised the pressure on Deschamps after a difficult Euro 2024 campaign, and the boss has admitted that changes are coming for Sunday. "I won't hide from you that the interest is still relative. This match is there, we're going to play it... It's Germany. It will be useful, but taking into account the very specific situation," he added. "Is the match at stake minimal? You said so. Some players aren't in the best shape. We have too little time between the two matches. There will be a lot of changes. I work according to the players. "Some have very interesting potential. They won't all be able to play. I've never deprived myself of attacking players. We had a lot of chances against Spain, but we also conceded five goals. It's a question of balance. "They're mostly young players. I'm not going to complain about having a lot of attacking players. It needs confirmation. They won't all be able to play at the same time, but it's very interesting for me."
