While Spain have already qualified for the Euro 2024 finals, eliminated Cyprus will be playing for pride when the two nations face off in Thursday's European Championship Qualification tie.
It will be the penultimate game for Luis de la Fuente's men in Group A as La Roja battle with Scotland for the top spot in the cluster. Other than an away loss to the Tartan Army, Spain have won the rest of the fixtures in the group.
Cyprus are destined to finish bottom but Temur Ketsbaia's side will fight to at least get off the mark here.
