Euro 2012: Spain Vs Republic of Ireland - Group Stage Match on June 14, 2012

Group C in Euro 2012 has the World Champion Spain who is about to play the second round group stage match of this tournament against their group member, Republic of Ireland. This match will be played at PGE Arena, Gdansk on June 14, 2012 which will commence at 20.45 CET. This is the second match of the day which will almost decide the fate of the Group C teams in this tournament.

Ending the last match against Croatia in 1-3 loss, Irish squad has set up a crucial situation for themselves. So in this match a victory is much deserved from this team to perk up their position in the final eight. Even if they can't call for a victory, a draw is very necessary for them to keep their Euro 2012 campaign alive. But a draw can bring a ray of hope for this only if Italy succeeds in ousting Croatia in the previous match of the day. After resuming in international tournament after a long time, Ireland is looking for a striking performance in this tournament but their first day's loss has left them in a dark corner. Compared to their previous opponent, Spain is a comparatively stronger rival and so to seek a win in this match, the Irish eleven have to be very consistent in the field, both in attack and defense. Moreover, their injury worry is another matter which is affecting the team spirit. Strikers like Shay Given, Darron Gibson were out of the team because of injury problems but now they are ready to be in the field along with Shane Long, as reported by Coach Giovanni Trapattoni. But again, Richard Dunne will again miss this game after he was injured in the previous match. 

On the other side, Spanish Coach Vicente del Bosque is already under serious debate because of his decision of putting down a extremely in-form striker from the first match which Spain ended with a draw against Italy and this draw may take a toll on the team's path of success. Cesc Fabregas is likely to get into the final eleven in place of Fernando Torres who has got a thigh injury on the other day. Fernando Llorente and Alvaro Negredo need to be more instrumental so that they don't repeat the same inconsistency in the field like the other day. Gerard Pique and Sergio Ramos will maintain their co-ordination in the defense. Ireland is not a very strong opponent for Spain but inclusion of some great strikers in the Irish squad may upset Spain through the ninety minutes. 

Spain is obviously the favorite in this match but the outcome may change at any time. Some of the bookies like Bet365, Skybet and Bwin are offering 5 for a draw match while BetFred and 32Red are offering 9/2 and 24/5 respectively for a draw score line.
