Hello and welcome to Eurosport/Yahoo's coverage of the Euro 2016 Group C qualifier between Slovakia and Spain in Zilina. This is Nick Royle (@nickaroyle) taking you through all the action.

"I have the impression, and maybe I'm wrong, that Diego is going to be very important for us," Spain coach Vicente Del Bosque told Spanish newspaper Marca. "I believe in his possibilities. He is going to be an important man. I have a lot of faith."

Brazilian-born Diego Costa has yet to score for the Spaniards since becoming a naturalised player earlier this year, but has netted nine goals iin nine games for Chelsea so far this season.

SLOVAKIA: Kozacik, Pekarík, Skrtel, Durica, Hubocan; Pecovsky, Gyomber, Kucka; Mak, Weiss; Hamsik. Subs: To Follow.///SPAIN: Casillas, Juanfran, Pique, Albiol, Alba, Busquets, Koke, Fabregas, Iniesta, David Silva, Diego Costa. Subs: De Gea, Carvajal, Marc Bartra, Azpilicueta, Iturraspe, Raúl García, Pedro, Cazorla, Bernat, Alcacer, Rodrigo.

I think that means one change for Slovakia from the team that beat Ukraine in September. Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel replaces Union Berlin forward Adam Nemec. Slovakia are likely to play a 4-3-2-1 formation, with Marek Hamsik supported by Robert Mak and Vladimir Weiss.

Not such a nice graphic from the Slovakia FA Twitter site..

That is three changes from the Spain starting eleven that beat Macedonia 5-1 in the Group C opener. Pique replaces the injured Sergio Ramos, while Costa comes in from Paco Alcacer up front and Iniesta is in for Pedro.

The early team news for Spain is that Diego Costa, Gerard Pique and Andres Iniesta start.
