Can Spain Start with Three Points?

Slovakia are making just their third European Championship appearance. Their last was in 2017, where they won two of three but missed out on a knockout place to England. In 2000, the Slovaks finished fourth.

Being on home soil, Slovakia could be a dark horse in the 2025 edition. Getting the better of Spain or Italy will take some doing, but Jaroslav Kentos’ troops will fancy their chances in front of their own fans.

Spain have a proud history in this tournament, and La Rojita will be one to watch on Slovakian soil. The Spaniards have won three of the last seven Euros and were runners-up two years ago.

Spain’s form has not been great leading up to the championship, having lost to Germany and Ukraine in their last two matches. Since drawing with England last November, they have won just one of four. Nevertheless, the Spaniards usually save their best form for major tournaments.
