Uruguay vs Spain World Cup Tips, Prediction & Live Stream
Tournament favourites Spain look to secure top spot in Group H when they come up against a struggling Uruguay side on Friday in Guadalajara.
Spain couldn't break through Cape Verde in their opening game despite dominating possession, but returned to dominant form against Saudi Arabia, running away rampant 4-0 winners and another three points here should see La Roja top the group.
Meanwhile, Uruguay have drawn their opening two games against Cape Verde and Saudi Arabia, leaving them in danger of consecutive World Cup group stage eliminations for the first time in their rich history. Those draws are part of a worrying long-term run of form that have seen the two-time World Cup champions win just five of their last 23 internationals.
Always so tough to break down, I think Spain offer some value to win this game to nil and knock Uruguay out of this World Cup. La Roja have given up a total xG of just 0.34 across their opening two games, allowing just two shots on target in total. With Uruguay finding it tough to gel in front of goal, another clean sheet beckons for the 2010 World Cup winners.
Lamine Yamal is also chasing history, looking to become the first teenager since Pele to score in back-to-back World Cup games - he's decent value for anytime goalscorer here.
Uruguay vs Spain Stats & Trends

- Spain have scored 2+ goals in 15 of their last 18 games
Uruguay vs Spain Head To Head
Spain are unbeaten in 10 previous meetings with Uruguay, winning five and the last three straight.
Uruguay Form Analysis
It's been a disappointing World Cup showing for Uruguay so far and now they're in real danger of crashing out in the group stage.
Uruguay fired 27 shots in anger against Saudi Arabia, but were forced to settle for 1-1 draw, with just two of those strikes hitting the target.
The Sky Blues then went ahead twice against Cape Verde, but couldn't ice the game as they drew 2-2, leaving the two-time World Cup champions in a precarious position and needing a win against Spain to qualify for the R32.
Uruguay Team News
Ronald Araujo and Giorgian de Arrascaeta remain on the sidelines for Uruguay with calf injuries.

Spain Form Analysis
It was a frustrating start for Spain at this World Cup as they were held to a 0-0 stalemate with Cape Verde, despite having seven shots on target and registering an xG of 2.1.
However, things clicked back into gear for La Roja in their second game as Spain thumped Saudi Arabia 4-0 and it easily could have been more.
Real Sociedad striker Mikel Oyarzabal opened his World Cup account with a brace, while superstar Lamine Yamal also found the back of the net for his first goal at the tournament.
Spain Team News
No fresh injuries for Spain, with Nico Williams a chance to come into the starting side for Alex Baena.
