Spain coach Luis Enrique has fielded a young squad of players who, despite their youth, already have considerable experience in domestic and european football. Unai Simon is a striker, while Aymeric Laporte and Eric Garcia will probably play as central defenders, with Jordi Alba and Dani Carvajal as full-backs.
The midfield could feature a Barcelona trio, with Gavi and Pedri paired with either Sergio Busquets or Manchester City's Rodri, while Álvaro Morata will lead the strikers, which will be joined by Dani Olmo, Ferran Torres, and Annu Fati. Fati, 20, has worked his way back to fitness after a two-year injury struggle and, along with Athletic Bilbao's 20-year-old winger Nico Williams, will provide pace and an ability to cross a marker that others cannot.
Scoring is likely to be Spain's main issue in Qatar, but Morata insisted it was a problem for the whole team, not just the forwards. "We all have to support each other," the Atletico Madrid striker told Monday. While spain has put their faith in youth, costa rica will rely on experience, including PSG's former Real Madrid keeper Keylor Navas and other veterans such as Bryan Ruiz and Celso Borges, reports Xinhua news agency. Has played 291 matches.
Joel Campbell, who spent time with Spanish club Real Betis, is likely to start and that experience will be vital for a squad packed with players from Costa Rica's domestic football. This will be Costa Rica's sixth appearance in a world cup final. Although they have won only five of those matches, spain will have to be cautious here as all three of their wins have come in their opening matches.
