Sports Mole looks at how Spain could line up in Saturday's international friendly with Albania.

Spain boss Luis Enrique will want to have a good look at his squad during the national team's next two friendlies, starting with Saturday's contest against Albania.

Enrique has left David de Gea out of his squad despite the goalkeeper's impressive form for Manchester United this season, although Unai Simon is now firmly the national team's number one and will start at the World Cup later this year unless he is unavailable through injury.

Brentford's David Raya, having been preferred to De Gea, will be hoping to make his debut for La Roja over their next two matches, while the likes of Carlos Soler, Hugo Guillamon, Gavi, Raul de Tomas and Yeremi Pino should add to their caps for La Roja.

Alvaro Morata is comfortably the leading goalscorer in the squad with 23, but the experienced forward might have to accept a spot on the bench here, with Ferran Torres, Pablo Sarabia and Dani Olmo likely to start as the front three.

Cesar Azpilicueta could get the nod over Dani Carvajal to start at right-back, while Barcelona duo Eric Garcia and Jordi Alba are expected to feature in the back four this weekend.

Atletico Madrid duo Koke and Marcos Llorente will be pushing for midfield spots, but Soler could be handed a start alongside Rodri and Pedri in the middle.

Pau Torres and Marcos Alonso are also expected to feature at some stage during the 90 minutes, with a number of players looking to secure their spots in the squad for the World Cup.

Spain possible starting lineup: Simon; Azpilicueta, E Garcia, Laporte, Alba; Soler, Rodri, Pedri; Sarabia, F Torres, Olmo
