Group H Preview

Another 'winner plus one' for this group you would expect. European champions and favourites to win this World Cup Spain are surely going to win this group with little opposition. Their team just oozes quality throughout, especially when Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas, who'd arguably walk into any other team, struggles to get a first team place. David Villa and Torres are always going to be under scrutiny to see whether they are the best striking partnership, but really there isn't many who can compete for that title.

I think Switzerland will be joining Spain but it is going to be another tightly fought contest. Captain Frei will play a huge part in any success Switzerland will have and former Manchester City player Gelson Fernandes will play another crucial part.

Excusing Switzerland, this group has a very Latino feel to it with Honduras and Chile joining Spain. Based on the number of players now being found in the Premier League who are Honduran I think they will finish third but that could easily be on goal difference depending on what Chile have to offer.
