I'm feeling nervous again this morning as Spain are playing their second game today...

With both teams already having one victory each it should be an interesting match later...

Can Spain carry on there good start to the tournament and produce another good display?

Will Sweden win again even though they only beat Greece before who were pretty pathetic....

Should Fabregas start today but if he does who will make way for him and will Torres score?

I'm going for a Sweden 1 v 3 Spain result...I know I'm biased!!....Where are my lucky pants........

I hope Torres finally scores, it's been too long since his last goal with Spain Evil or Very Mad
But anyway what matters is that Spain beat Sweden, even if it'll hard.
I'll say 1-0 for Spain. Villa to score.

It's going to be Spains year they will get 9 points in the group phase i expect Torres to get a couple goals tonight (i maybe just blinded as ive got a tenner on him for golden boot) then im expecting a Russia victory over Greece.

Sweden will try to keep it tight but i think Spain have just got so much quality they will get the breakthrough

I'm gonna miss this match Evil or Very Mad Should be able to see a replay at sometime though.

I guess that Spain will play their usual way, some good strong attacking football. I read that they will play the same team that beat Russia, so we should have the joy of seeing some goal from Villa and Torres again. Sweden are probably the second best team in this group, its hard to separate Russia, Sweden and Greece imo. But Spain should be too much for Sweden to handle. I dont think there'll be as many goal as we saw in matchday 1, but Spain should win about 2-0 i predict.

I bet on Spain, suppose Sweden won't show something special against such a quick and passing team.

I think Spain will go for the same starting line-up with Cesc coming in as a second half sub for Torres or Villa to play in the supporting role. He played well in that role in the first match, but he should play in the role of Xavi as the play maker... But since the first match was very successful, they won't change anything IMO and I'm happy with it...

I can't see a Sweden win here to be honest, they can be quite slow off the mark and quite dodgy at the back and i think that may be exploited by the interchanging and quick passing football of the likes of Torres, Villa, Silva, Iniesta. Sweden do like to play with up to three attacking Midfielders but i think Senna will protect the back four well like he did against the Russians and the Spanish will be better organised at the back.

2-0 to Spain.

Sweden beat Spain in qualifying didn't they? Pretty sure they did, so i think it will be close. With Zlatan and Larsson back, there could be a couple of goals at either end.

1-1 at halftime. I feel like we r gonna watch 2 or more goals in the second half.

Spanish players tired or something? They seemed like they dont wanna play or i dont know.. maybe i was expecting more from them.

Spain have to be careful. They can't lose to Sweden as they have to finish top to keep away from playing Holland in the next round.
