Team News: Cesc Fabregas earns 100th Spain cap

Cesc Fabregas earns his 100th Spain cap in a much-changed starting lineup for the trip to Ukraine.

Cesc Fabregas is the only Spain survivor from their last outing as he earns his 100th cap for the national side against Ukraine this evening.

The Chelsea midfielder starts in a side that includes two debutants, with Mario Gaspar and Xabier Etxeita given their maiden bows for La Roja in Kiev.

There is also a place in the starting lineup for Paco Alcacer who, fresh on the back of scoring twice against Luxembourg last time out, joins Isco and Nolito up top in a 4-3-3 formation.

Hosts Ukraine, who can still finish second in Group C, are without suspended duo Yevhen Khacheridi and Serhiy Sydorchuk for the crucial clash at the Olympic Stadium.

Ukraine: Pyatov; Fedetskiy, Kucher, Rakitskiy, Shevchuk; Stepanenko, Rotan, Garmash; Yarmolenko, Kravets, Konoplyanka

Spain: De Gea; Mario, Etxeita, Nacho, Azpilicueta; San Jose, Fabregas, Thiago; Isco, Alcacer, Nolito
