Who are the Commentators for Spain vs Saudi Arabia World Cup Match?
Spain will be aiming to secure their first win at this year's World Cup as the former champions take on Saudi Arabia in their second match of the tournament.
The Group H table is wide open after the first round of matches with both the matches ending in draws. While Spain vs Cabo Verde ended in a stalemate, Saudi Arabia and Uruguay played out a 1-1 draw.
Spain are the clear favorites heading into the match and head coach Luis de la Fuente knows the importance of three points today. La Roja could secure themselves a spot at the knockout stages if they win while Saudi Arabia will also need to avoid defeat if they want to keep hopes of qualification alive.
The two countries are facing each other for the second time in the World Cup finals. Spain beat the Green Falcons 1-0 when they met in 2006.
