over the summer, they watched their North American adventure come to a disappointing end.Falling at the first hurdle as they suffered Round of 32 heartbreak at the hands of Morocco on June 30th, Xavi will know the importance of finding some crucial defensive stability.In fact, the Netherlands have failed to register a single clean sheet from any of their eight appearances across all competitions

2023.While Germany might have touched down in North America over the summer in the midst of a real purple patch, the European giants suffered an infamous World Cup exit.Shockingly crashing out in the Round of 32 following a penalty shootout defeat against Paraguay on June 29th, the Nationalelf are also getting a new era underway on Thursday night.Watching Jurgen Klopp complete his iconic arrival, the former Liverpool boss has plenty of expectations on his shoulders and will be desperate to get his tenure off to a dream start.Knowing the importance of claiming an immediate response in

monumental challenge when they travel to Lisbon on Thursday night.Last seen signing off their summer with another disappointing display as they eventually fell to a 2-1 defeat against Romania, Wales are rightfully installed as a landslide underdog here.It should also be highlighted, failing to win any of their last four consecutive outings, Bellamy’s squad are enduring their longest winless rut since back in September 2024.Hit with a 2-0 defeat when they last met Portugal for their blockbuster EURO 2016 semi-final showdown in France, the Dragons are regarded as a standout Group A relegation

camp have secured just a sole victory from their previous nine appearances across all competitions.Opening 2026 with another 1-0 defeat at the hands of Paraguay, Greece have also continued to gain an unwanted reputation for their struggles in the final third.Drawing a line under their downbeat World Cup qualifying adventure last year with a 0-0 stalemate against Belarus, the Ethniki have drawn a blank in four of their previous five outings.Along with falling to a 2-0 loss when they last met Serbia back in November 2014, Greece have also failed to claim a single victory on foreign soil over
