SPAIN V TAHITI
Fifa ranking: Spain 1st and Tahiti 138th
Useful facts: In a game which appears to be a massive mismatch, football powerhouse Spain take on minnows Tahiti in Rio de Janeiro. La Furia Roja will look to batter the tiny French Polynesian island nation with their slick passing. Tahiti can only really hope to keep the scoreline respectable by defending as if their lives depend on it. This Confederations Cup Group B game could be entertaining!
Bradley Carnell: This is like David versus Goliath! I think Spain will be outright winners and will score plenty of goals. It might be a chance for some of the younger Spanish stars to shine. Win for Spain.
