Netherlands take on Portugal in the first ever UEFA Nations League final on Sunday with three Barcelona players set to be involved.

Goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen and incoming midfielder Frenkie de Jong will feature for Ronald Koeman’s side, while Nelson Semedo should start for the hosts.

Semedo has forced his way back into the Portugal team and played all 90 minutes of their 3-1 semi-final win over Switzerland.
