Our GOAL6 prediction

ENGLAND 3-0 ALBANIA

The Thomas Tuchel era begins here. England fans will be excited to see what their new manager comes up with in his first game in charge and with a few bold selection calls having already been made, it'll be interesting to see how it all fits together on the pitch on Friday night. Albania, ranked 65th in the FIFA World Rankings below Jordan and the UAE, clearly won't be a match for the Three Lions and it should result in a comfortable home win.

SPAIN 2-1 NETHERLANDS

Euro 2024 winners Spain have their sights set on another trophy, with the Nations League entering the quarter-final stage. A fixture with the Netherlands always evokes memories of the 2010 World Cup final - and that Nigel De Jong kung-fu kick - and while there might not be as many fireworks in this second-leg clash, the Lamine Yamal-inspired hosts will be too strong for the Dutch.

Our GOAL6 prediction

FRANCE 2-0 CROATIA

Kylian Mbappe is back. After the backlash prompted by his absence from Didier Deschamps' last squad, the Real Madrid forward is ready to lead Les Bleus from the front once again and we're expecting him to turn up and do the business. Croatia may hold a 2-0 first-leg advantage but there's no chance they're turning over the French at the Stade de France, especially not when Mbappe's got a point to prove. We're going all the way to penalties here, with the French advancing.

Our GOAL6 prediction

GERMANY 1-1 ITALY

Germany edged the first leg of this Nations League quarter-final despite falling a goal behind to Sandro Tonali's opening goal, and we're expecting a similarly tight contest in the return meeting. The absence of the mercurial Florian Wirtz through injury is a significant blow for Julian Nagelsmann, and with Italy likely to sit back, soak up pressure and then try to take advantage of counter-attacking opportunities, we can see both sides cancelling each other out, with Germany going through on aggregate.

PORTUGAL 4-0 DENMARK

Portugal look set to wheel out Cristiano Ronaldo for yet another knockout fixture, with his disappointing display at Euro 2024 having not put off Roberto Martinez in the slightest. There's likely to be more Manchester United players on show in this fixture than anywhere else over the course of the international break, and with Bruno Fernandes in the form of his life at club level, he'll be one to make a difference as the hosts look to overturn a 1-0 first-leg deficit.

ENGLAND 5-0 LATVIA

Goals, goals and more goals - that's what we're going to see in Thomas Tuchel's second England game in charge, right? That'll certainly be the hope for the German head coach and the best part of 90,000 expectant Three Lions fans inside Wembley on Monday night, and with the former Chelsea boss and his players having had a full week of camp by this point, everything should click into gear in game two.
