Spain in the Euro

- This is Spain seventh consecutive Euro. Champions in 1964, they were also victorious in 2008 and 2012 to become the first side to retain the trophy.

- Spain's defence of the trophy was ended by Italy in the round of 16 at Uefa Euro 2016, the Azzurri runnig out 2-0 winners.

- Spain and Germany/West Germany are the most successfull Euro teams having won three editions each.

- Spain is one of five sides who didn't lose a game in the Uefa Euro 2020 preliminaries, along with Belgium, Italy - who both won all their fixtures - Denmark and Ukraine.

- Spain had more shots (227), possession (70%) and completed a greater percentage of their passes (91%) than any other team in qualifying.

- After the Uefa Euro 2020 draws against Sweden and Poland, this is Spain's tenth game at the La Cartuja Stadium in Seville, where they beat Kosovo 3-1 in 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifying on 31 March thanks to goals for Dani Olmo, Ferran Torres and Gerard Moreno. Their record at the stadium is now four wins, two draws and two losses. They had won their last three pre-Euro games there, including a 6-0 Uefa Nations League defeat on Germany on 17 November 2020.

- Spain's overall record in Seville is now 39 wins, seven draws and four losses.

Slovakia in the Euro

- Slovakia are making their second successive Euro appearance after their debut at Uefa Euro 2016, where a side coached by Ján Kozák finished third in Group B behind Wales and England on four points before losing 3-0 to Germany in the round of 16.

- Slovakia's record in Euro finals is now two wins, one draw and three losses.

- While Slovakia had never competed at a Uefa European Championship as an independent nation before 2016, as part of Czechoslovakia they figured in two four-team final tournaments plus, in 1980, the first eight-team event.

- Czechoslovakia finished third in 1960 and 1980 and lifted the trophy in 1976. Eight of the 11 players who started the '76 final against West Germany - and triumphed on penaltis after a 2-2 draw - hailed from Slovakia.

- Slovakia have lost all three away games against Spain although they did draw their only other fixture in the country, a February 2007 friendly against Poland in Jerez finishing 2-2 with first-half goals from Martin Jakubko and Martin Škrtel having given them a two-goal lead.

- This is Slovakia's first game in Seville.
