The Nations League semi-finals start on Wednesday with Germany, Spain, France and Portugal seeking to fine tune their sides with the World Cup just one year away. 

Tournament hosts Germany face Portugal in Munich on Wednesday and title holders Spain face France in Stuttgart a day later. The winners will face off in the Bavarian capital on Sunday. 


Of the final four, only Germany are yet to win a Nations League title, with Portugal’s success coming in the opening tournament in 2019. 



Germany captain Joshua Kimmich will be handed his 100th international cap on Wednesday. 

The Bayern Munich midfielder is the 14th Germany player to reach the milestone, but will become the only member of the 100 club not to have won a World Cup.

Kimmich said Monday he “had a couple more chances” to correct the stat and said the Nations League would show how much progress Germany had made after a disappointing decade. “If it’s enough for the really big titles, we don’t know, it depends on a lot of factors.”
