England take on 2026 World Cup winners Spain at Wembley Stadium in a UEFA Nations League Group C fixture, with kick-off set for 7:45pm BST. The reverse fixture is scheduled for 15 November in Madrid.

The two nations last met in the UEFA Euro 2024 final in Berlin, where Spain edged Thomas Tuchel’s side 2-1 in added time to claim the trophy. That result gives the Nations League meeting an added edge as England look to settle the score on home soil.

Mark Pougatch presents the coverage, a familiar face from ITV’s 2026 World Cup broadcasts and a broadcaster with several decades of experience. Roy Keane and Ian Wright join him as pundits — both were regulars alongside Pougatch during ITV’s coverage in North America — while former Chelsea and Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata represents the Spanish perspective on the panel. Between them, the three pundits have accumulated 141 international caps for England, the Republic of Ireland, and Spain, and all appeared at World Cup level during their playing careers.

Sam Matterface serves as the main commentator for the match, with former England defender Lee Dixon — 21 caps to his name — alongside him in the booth. Gabriel Clarke is ITV’s roving reporter on the night.
