The game, and perhaps the 2014 World Cup, look to have come a little too soon for Diego Costa, after the Atletico front man limped off in last weekend’s Champions League final. Spain however are not lacking in options in attack, and players like Alvaro Negredo, David Villa and Fernando Llorente will cause the tightest of defences problems in Brazil. The trio can be found at 15/4, 9/2 and 5/1 (Bet365) respectively to open the scoring in Seville, but in a Spanish side which carries threat from all areas of the pitch it is hard to pinpoint where the goals will come from.

Players like Fabregas, Jesus Navas and David Silva have all had great domestic seasons and highlight just how potent the squad is. It’s not just in the final third where the Spanish are strong, with a rearguard boasting the likes of Sergio Ramos, Gerard Pique and Iker Casillas they will be tough to get past as well. Sky Bet offer 4/6 on Spain winning the game to nil, which, if on top form, they should do comfortably and therefore is our first football betting tip for Friday’s friendly. With the World Cup just over two weeks away this is more than just a friendly, and you would expect Spain to come out in the correct mindset and get the job done in a professional manner.

Occasionally in friendly matches smaller sides can cause an upset as the normal intensity can sometimes be lacking, however this close to the World Cup this should not present a problem for Spain as they will look to prepare themselves as well as possible for the defence of their title. Bolivia, who finished second from bottom in the South American qualifying stage with just two wins from their 16 matches, cannot have any real hope of a result and will instead just be thankful of the opportunity to play a side as good as Spain. The handicap market offers the best chance of getting some value out of this game, and even going as far as Spain -4, which comes in at 6/1 with Coral should be a relatively safe betting prediction. Equally so should be over 2.5 goals in the game, which Paddy Power offer at a respectable 4/9. Spain, despite an ageing squad are sure to be right up there challenging for the World Cup once more in Brazil, and will have far too much for a poor Bolivia side on Friday night.
