Could be an epic mis-match written but Spain midfielder David Silva is not viewing their friendly with Haiti as a meaningless exercise. Reigning world and European champions Spain begin their preparations just for this summer's Confederations Cup with their first-ever meeting with Haiti tomorrow in Miami.
The friendly pits earth's top-rated team against a nation who definitely are 63rd in the rankings and who've just once made the earth Cup finals - back 1974 - but while Spain are overwhelming favourites to win comfortably, Silva still feels the match will offer you his side some useful insights for future battles.
It remains to be seen what formation Spain coach Vicente del Bosque will opt to employ within the match, and whether he uses any of the three centre-forwards in her squad - Fernando Torres, Roberto Soldado and David Villa - to guide the queue on the outset.
However, as Silva highlights, Spain are actually pretty successful both messing around with a traditional number nine and without. Next weekend's game, Spain happen to be Big apple for Tuesday's friendly against the Republic of Ireland before then going to Brazil with the Confederations Cup, where they face Uruguay of their opening match on June 16.
Haiti can also be using tomorrow's match to assist using preparations as is also getting involved in the CONCACAF Gold Cup in July. The Caribbean nation choosing a lump sum all of their friendlies in 2013 The friendly at Miami's Sun Life Stadium will raise money for your Phoenix Project, which has been established to help Haitian redevelopment after the 2010 earthquake.
