MADRID, Nov. 17 -- Spain coach Luis Enrique will make changes to his side when they play Bosnia-Herzegovina in Las Palmas (Canary Islands) on Sunday as he looks to find a way back into winning ways.
Spain's 3-2 defeat to Croatia on Thursday night was their second defeat in two games after the 3-2 home defeat to England in October.
Thursday saw several key players look below their best and the coach has to find a way to turn Spain's form around and also to find solutions for the future of his side.
Sergio Busquets, Isco, Sergio Ramos, Marco Asensio, the recalled Jordi Alba and David de Gea all disappointed in Zagreb, with goalkeeper De Gea doing little to dispel the doubts over him in the World Cup finals.
The Manchester United keeper has conceded six goals in his last two appearances. Although it's hard to say any of the goals was specifically his fault, Enrique will give some game time to Kepa Arrizabalaga or Pau Lopez in Las Palmas.
Ramos has had to withdraw from the squad with a groin injury and that absence coupled with that of Nacho Fernandez, who injured his knee before the Croatia game. Thus, Mario Hermoso is likely to start in defense, and Jony Otto and Gaya could also get their chances.
Rodri may get the chance to substitute Busquets, who has been looking jaded for Barcelona recently, while Pablo Fornals and Brais Mendez can also expect to make their debuts at some stage in the game.
