Spain vs. Georgia lineups, team news

Spain's build-up to the October games has been heavily impacted by two major injury withdrawals.

talisman Lamine Yamal and midfield metronome Rodri have both been removed from De la Fuente's plans following injuries in their final club matches before the break.

Hansi Flick critcised Spain's handling of Lamine Yamal in September, as he returned to Barcelona injured, and his absence will cause more controversy this time around.

Fellow Barcelona stars Gavi and Fermin Lopez are also missing through injury, with captain Dani Carvajal not risked.

Spain predicted starting XI (4-3-3, right to left): Simon (GK) — Porro, Huijsen, Le Normand, Cucurella — Pedri, Zubimendi, Merino — Torres, Oyarzabal, Pino..

Injured:Gavi, Lopez, Yamal, Rodri.
Suspended: None

However, the visitors also have several star names plying their trade across Europe's top leagues, including Giorgi Kochorashvili at Sporting CP and Villarreal striker Georges Mikautadze.

Georgia predicted starting XI (4-3-3, right to left): Mamardashvili (GK) — Kakabadze, Goglichidze, Lochoshvili, Azarovi — Gagnidze, Kochorashvili, Davitashvili — Zivzivadze, Mikautadze, Kvaratskhelia.
