Euro 2016 action continues on Monday as Spain take on Czech Republic in Group D, Republic of Ireland face Sweden, while Belgium come up against Italy in Group E.
Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea is in contention to start for Spain in their Group D opener against the Czech Republic.
Spain are currently unbeaten in their last 12 games at the European Championships, winning nine and drawing three, the longest unbeaten run in the history of the competition.
Meanwhile, Czech Republic are playing in their ninth European Championship having won it once as Czechoslovakia back in 1976.
For the Czechs, only Basel defender Marek Suchy is unavailable for the match through suspension.
This is Spain and the Czech Republic’s first encounter in a major tournament, and the action begins at 15:00.
Spain coach Vicente del Bosque told Uefa: ‘[The opening game] is very special and one with a lot of responsibility, increasing from day to day, but we will see if we are at the level we deserve.
‘They [Czech Republic] are a well-organised team with good players and they are good from set pieces which is always dangerous.
‘I think we have managed to get into good shape despite the hard season. The players joined the squad in various stages. They are OK and they get along. Let’s see if we can show that tomorrow.’
Czech Republic coach Pavel Vrba said: ‘To succeed we will have to do everything right as we are going to face one of the biggest favourites for the tournament.
‘They have world-class players in every position; we have a very difficult test in front of us. But I still think there are things that could surprise them.
‘We do not want to limit Tomáš Rosický’s freedom on the field – he likes to create and be attacking. But we will see if some of the others play in unusual defensive roles. Apart from Marek Suchy, who is suspended, all the players are fit and available.
Republic of Ireland face Sweden in the 18:00 kick-off.
Ireland will welcome Robbie Keane and James McCarthy back into the fold following calf and hamstring injuries respectively, though late fitness tests are likely to determine whether or not they start. Sweden, meanwhile, could take to the field without midfielder Albin Ekdal, who is struggling for fitness.
The sides last played one another in 2014 World Cup qualifying, with Sweden coming from behind to win 2-1.
‘If you’re stubborn and you’re hard to break down, if you’ve got that little bit of talent where you can conjure something up from virtually nothing, it gives you a better chance. We’ve got some very, very fine players who I think are ready to do well in the competition.’ said Ireland coach Martin O’Neil.
Sweden coach Erik Hamren, meanwhile, said: ‘We’ve prepared well, both in Sweden and here. We respect Ireland and are looking forward to this encounter.
‘We’ll have to see how they play tomorrow and then adapt,’ he added.
The late game on Monday sees big guns Belgium and Italy face off.
Belgium have traditionally struggled agains the Italians, having failed to beat then since May 1972. Italy coasted to a 2-0 win when the sides last met in the European Championships, that encounter coming back in 2000.
Neither side has any lagging injury concerns and should be at full strength for the clash.
‘I think they’re even more dangerous when they have their backs to the wall. They have one of the top leagues in the world, a high level of players and a well-prepared coach who’ll get them in great physical condition,’ Belgium coach Marc Wilmots told Uefa.
Italy coach Antonio Conte added the following: ‘You feel your country is urging you on and all of us will give that little bit more to be warriors – both them and us. It’s important to be warriors and to use your head and try to play the way we have prepared over recent days.’
Possible line-ups:
Belgium: Thibaut Courtois, Toby Alderweireld, Jason Denayer, Thomas Vermaelen, Jan Vertonghen, Axel Witsel, Radja Nainggolan, Dries Mertens, Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku.
Italy: Gianluigi Buffon, Andrea Barzagli, Leonardo Bonucci, Giorgio Chiellini, Antonio Candreva, Marco Parolo, Daniele De Rossi, Emanuele Giaccherini, Matteo Darmian, Ciro Immobile, Simone Zaza.
