Spain host Iraq at the Abanca-Riazor in La Coruña in a pre-World Cup friendly as both nations make their final preparations before the tournament gets underway in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Luis de la Fuente's side arrive into this fixture with World Cup squad numbers already confirmed. Lamine Yamal will wear the No.19 shirt at his first World Cup, while Dani Olmo takes the prestigious No.10 and Gavi has been handed the No.9 jersey — a selection that has already sparked debate among supporters.

The 17-year-old Yamal has been the standout figure of this Spain generation. The Barcelona forward has spoken openly about thriving on the biggest stages, describing a mentality built from a lifetime in football rather than nerves born of expectation. He arrives at this World Cup as one of the most watched players on the planet.

Iraq, meanwhile, are preparing for a historic World Cup campaign of their own. Graham Arnold's side will face Norway, France, and Senegal in Group I — a return to the tournament for the Lions of Mesopotamia for the first time in nearly four decades. This friendly against Spain represents their most serious test in the build-up.

Iraq arrive in La Coruña on the back of a win over Andorra, having secured a 1-0 victory in their most recent outing. Arnold will want his squad sharp and cohesive ahead of the group stage.

Spain, playing on home soil, will use the occasion to sharpen combinations and settle squad roles before heading into their Group H campaign against Cape Verde, Saudi Arabia, and Uruguay.

Here is everything you need to know about how to watch Spain vs Iraq live, including TV channel and live stream options.

How to watch Spain vs Iraq with VPN

If you are travelling abroad or just want to access your usual streaming services from a different part of the world, you may run into geo-restrictions. This is where a Virtual Private Network (VPN) comes in handy.

A VPN, such as ExpressVPN, allows you to establish a secure, encrypted connection online. By virtually changing your location to a country where the game is being broadcast, you can bypass blackout restrictions and watch your favourite team live. A step-by-step guide is described later in this article, or you can also check out our guide to the best VPNs for streaming sports.

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

  • Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
