Georgia XI vs Spain: Starting lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for Euro 2024 last-16 today

Georgia are forced into a change for their Euro 2024 clash with Spain.

Anzor Mekvabishvili is suspended having picked up a second booking in the historic win over Portugal but had already been dropped to the bench for that tie, meaning Watford’s Giorgi Chakvetadze should continue in the midfield.

In defence, Willy Sagnol swapped Giorgi Gvelesiani and Luka Lochoshvili in for Solomon Kvirkvelia and Giorgi Tsitaishvili last time out but is expected to return to his previous starters here.

A 5-3-2 formation will likely be favoured again in Cologne with the fearsome strike duo of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Euros top scorer Georges Mikautadze sparking attacks on the break.

Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili has also continued to enhance his reputation at the tournament and will continue between the sticks.

Starting Georgia XI: Mamardashvili, Kakabadze, Gvelesiani, Kashia, Dvali, Lochoshvili, Chakvetadze, Kiteishvili, Kochorashvili, Mikautadze, Kvaratskhelia

Subs: Loria, Kvirkvelia, Zivzivadze, Davitashvili, Kvilitaia, Gugeshashvili, Gocholeishvili, Kvekveskiri, Altunashvili, Shengelia, Tsitaishvili, Lobjanidze, Tabidze, Sigua
