Tunisia vs Spain
International Friendly
Date: Saturday, 9 June 2018
Kick-Off at 19:45 UK
Venue: Stadion FK Krasnodar (Krasnodar).
Spain have been held to three draws in their last four outings and they travel to Krasnodar to meet Tunisia for the final test ahead of the World Cup in the hope they can bounce back to the winning ways and lift their team spirits.
La Furia Roja have thus been held off by Russia and Germany back in March as well as Switzerland in their last outing on Sunday, and although the win over Argentina in the process came in a great manner – it’s questionable whether it will be enough to come to Russia as confident as ever. Lopetegui’s men will now be as motivated but could be in for another very tough challenge.
Tunisia have high hopes of their own and have proven to be a very tough side to outclass, as they connected a nine-game unbeaten streak. They’ve beaten Iran (1-0) and Costa Rica (1-0) in early 2018 Friendlies and held off both Portugal (2-2) and Turkey (2-2) to thriller draws since then, as Eagles of Carthage need to build on it ahead of the final tournament.
Tunisia vs Spain: Head-to-head
- This will be only the second head-to-head clash for the sides ever.
- Spain have bagged a 3-1 win in the first, turning a 2006 World Cup clash their way with goals from Raul and Fernando Torres in the final 20 minutes.
- We now expect a similar tough contest at Stadion FK Krasnodar.
