The UEFA Nations League final is set to be a thrilling clash between two Iberian powerhouses, Portugal and Spain, at the Allianz Arena in Munich this Sunday, June 8, 2025. Both teams have showcased their attacking prowess and resilience in the semifinals, setting the stage for an electrifying encounter. With star-studded lineups and tactical brilliance, the question on everyone’s mind is: Who will lift the Nations League trophy?

Form Guide and Recent Performances

Spain, under Luis de la Fuente, have showcased scintillating form throughout the tournament. Their emphatic 5-4 win over France in the semifinals was a statement of intent, highlighting their attacking depth and the rise of young talents like Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams. However, their defense has shown vulnerabilities — something Portugal will look to exploit.

Portugal, meanwhile, staged a stunning second-half comeback to defeat Germany, with veterans like Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes driving their charge. Both sides boast exceptional attacking talent, but defensive solidity could be the key to victory in this high-stakes fixture.

Predicted Lineups

Portugal (4-2-3-1):
Diogo Costa; Nelson Semedo, Ruben Dias, Gonçalo Inácio, Nuno Mendes; VITINHA, João Neves; Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes, Pedro Neto; Cristiano Ronaldo

Spain (4-3-3):
Unoi Simón; Pedro Porro, Robin Le Normand, Dean Huijsen, Marc Cucurella; Pedri, Martín Zubimeni, Fabián Ruiz; Lamine Yamal, Mikel Oyarzabal, Nico Williams

Prediction: Who Has the Edge?

While Spain has the edge in youth, flair, and current momentum, Portugal’s experience and composure in big games could prove decisive. If Ronaldo finds the net and the midfield holds firm, Portugal could edge out Spain in a tight contest.
