Diego Costa leads the line for Spain in their first 2018 World Cup qualifier against Liechtenstein this evening.
Costa accused the Spanish Press of mistreating him directly after Spain’s 2-0 win against Belgium last week, but his remarks have taken a backseat to his substitute appearance in Brussels, the Chelsea striker having assisted David Silva for his first goal.
Elsewhere, Julen Lopetegui makes just one other change to his Roja team as Sergi Roberto comes in for Dani Carvajal at right-back.
Tonight marks the seventh meeting between Spain and Liechtenstein, with the former winning the previous six, scoring 23 and conceding none.
