Spain vs Russia Soccer Preview-Predictions
The grand stadium will serve up an amuse-bouche round of 16, after four games during the group phase. The Luzhniki stadium waits for the semi-final and Final to be held at the venue later in July. Heading to Moscow the two teams are simply perfect for the occasion. The 2010 winners and one of the super hot favorites for the Russia 2018 face the hosts themselves, so Spain will be in for quite a reception if the atmosphere for Russia’s superlative Opening Match performance is anything to say.
Contrasting respective roads to this round have been set. For La Roja, it was reasonably rocky before ultimately topping the group in a remarkable final day in Group B. The final group match between Russia and Uruguay ended in a disappointing defeat of 3-0, with one meaning, the second place in their Group A. The match at the Sbornaya’s home venue will be their consolation with a capacity crowd expected to cheer on the hosts.
Possible line-ups:
Spain: Dani Carvajal, Gerard Pique, Sergio Ramos, Jordi Alba, Diego Costa, Iago Aspas, Sergio Busquets, Koke, Andres Iniesta, Isco, David De Gea.
Russia: Roman Zobnin, Daler Kuzyaev, Mario Fernandes, Ilya Kutepov, Sergey Ignashevich, Yuri Zhirkov, Aleksandr Samedov, Aleksandr Golovin, Denis Cheryshev, Igor Akinfeev, Artem Dzyuba.
