GER vs SPA Dream11 Prediction: The UEFA Nations League 2020/21 will see one of the most hotly-anticipated encounter play out at the Mercedes-Benz Arena, with Germany playing hosts to Spain. The previous Nations League was a major disappointment for Joachim Low’s men as they finished bottom of their group that also had France and Netherlands. However, a change of format has meant that they were spared from relegation. The Germans have recovered well from the difficult phase, racking up seven victories in their last eight competitive games. In their most recent fixture, Germany hammered Northern Ireland 6-1 in the UEFA Euro 2020 Qualifiers. Spain narrowly missed out on the UEFA Nations League finals last year after finishing second in their group behind England. And they will be gunning to correct that this time out. Since their 3-2 defeat to Croatia in the Nations League, La Roja are on an eleven-game unbeaten run, with their latest fixture ending in a 5-0 triumph over Roma in the Euro Qualifiers.
