Spain vs Germany Head-to-Head stats and numbers you need to know before Match 45 of UEFA Euro 2024

Spain and Germany will square off against each other in the first quarter-final of Euro 2024 at the MHPArena on Friday in what promises to be a riveting contest. Spain have managed to keep a perfect record at Euro 2024 as they prepare for their toughest battle yet in the tournament on Friday against the hosts.

La Roja are the only nation to have won all of their matches at this iteration of the continental competition.

They beat Croatia, Italy and Albania in the group stage to set up a clash with Georgia in the round of 16. Luis de la Fuente's men conceded a goal for the first time in the tournament against Georgia and found themselves in the unlikely position of having to come back from behind to progress to the quarters.

But they pulled it off in emphatic fashion, scoring no fewer than four goals to blow their opponents away and making as loud and strong a statement as they were expected to in the lead-up to the game.

Meanwhile, Germany have also been almost as impressive as Spain's young and exuberant side. After kicking off their campaign with a 5-1 win over Scotland, Die Mannschaft beat Hungary 2-0 in their second group stage encounter before settling for a 1-1 draw with Switzerland in their third.

They were embroiled in a dramatic round-of-16 battle with Denmark and eventually won the game 2-0. It was a contest where nature intervened unceremoniously to cause a stoppage, bestowing heavy rain and threatening the safety of the open ground with a handful of lightning strikes.

Julian Nagelsmann's unit has played some exciting football intermittently but they will need to be at their very best on Friday when they go up against a formidable Spanish side.
