The last 16 of Euro 2020 will be resumed on Monday with Croatia clash against Spain, and France face Switzerland.

Croatia Vs. Spain

What's the story?

It's an old adage that the best teams grow into a tournament and Croatia will be hoping that holds true as they head to Copenhagen. Zlatko Dalić's side created little in defeat against England during their group opener, stirred into life in the second half of a 1-1 draw with the Czech Republic, then roared past Scotland to reach the last 16. But history is against them as they have been eliminated in all three previous EURO knockout games.

Where to watch the game on TV

The match will be aired via Bein Sports channels.

Croatia: Livaković; Juranović; Vida, Ćaleta-Car, Gvardiol; Modrić, Brozović, Kovačić; Vlašić; Rebić, Petković

Spain: Unai Simón; Azpilicueta, Eric García, Laporte, Jordi Alba; Koke, Busquets, Pedri; Gerard Moreno, Morata, Sarabia

France vs Switzerland

What's the story?

The world champions set out their stall by beating Germany 1-0 in their group opener and ended topping a tough group despite draws against Hungary and Portugal. You sense there is more to come from France, though, with Paul Pogba impressing, Kylian Mbappé gathering in menace and Karim Benzema slotting seamlessly back into their attacking unit.
