Luis de la Fuente's Spain bounced back from a shock 0-0 draw in their World Cup opener against Cape Verde with a 4-0 thrashing of Saudi Arabia. Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal found the net for Spain and raised hopes of repeating the heroics of the 2010 winning campaign.
Yamal's fitness still remains a concern, as he cannot complete 90 minutes but is expected to start. While Spain can afford to get away with a draw - should Cape Verde potentially beat Saudi Arabia in the other Group H game - they will risk losing top spot. Thus De La Fuente is likely to go full-strength against Marcelo Bielsa's side.
Two-time World Cup winners Uruguay have never beaten Spain in their history, and tonight would certainly be a wonderful place to start. Bielsa's side have played out two draws - against Cape Verde and Saudi Arabia, leaving them in need of all three points (as a draw would leave them with three points and a goal difference of 0).
Maxi Araújo has been amongst the goals for them, and he can certainly trouble Spain's defence as Uruguay go all out for the win.
