Spain vs. Costa Rica: Match preview

One of the title favorites will finally begin their path. Spain will take on Costa Ricatoday at Al Thumama Stadium on Matchday 1 of the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup. Luis Enrique will lead this young Spanish team as it attempts to join the list of teams that won on the first round of the tournament.Check out how to watch it on TV or live stream in your country.

Spain undoubtedly appear as one of the top candidates to take the crown home. They did so in South Africa 2010, but this will be a much younger squad. Out are marquee names like Sergio Ramos or David de Gea, although there is plenty of talent at Luis Henrique’s disposal. Given they share the group with Germany, they don’t have margin for error if they want to qualify in first place.

Costa Rica may seem to be a long shot to make it to the Round of 16. However, that was also the case in Brazil 2014 when played against Italy, Uruguay and England and they still won the group. That time they even ended up being a penalty shootout away from reaching the semifinals, so they shouldn’t be discarded yet. It wasn’t easy for them getting to Qatar since they had to beat New Zealand in a playoff game.

Spain will clash with Costa Rica at Al Thumama Stadium on Matchday 1 of the Qatar 2022 World Cup this Wednesday, November 23.
