Kevin hatchard and Andy brassel bringing their Euro experience to our Euro kickoff on Sky Sports News as we focus on Group B Andy and looking at Spain Italy Croatia with all durp to Albania feels like a group that's pretty certain for the third place team to qualify maybe I think I think what Albania can do is really interesting in here because I think they'll be the fittest team in this group yeah I mean sylvinho the former Arsenal left back and Manchester City of course Absolute Fitness fanatic he said after his team qualified and they did so brilliantly to qualify for a second European championship in in three attempts now brilliant in qualifying um beating Poland out the way for example and getting Fernando Santos the former Euro winning coach sacked he said in the friendlies back in in March if you're not fit enough you won't be playing for me I don't care about qualification now you've got to really produce it going forward he's left some big players out of his Squad and I think what Albania can do in this group is they can spoil it for someone else maybe it'll be difficult for them to qualify even in third place though they do have European Championship experience from before and they have a decent defense I would say as well but I I think you look at Spain and Italy they're unknowns to a certain extent despite having dominated in the last Euro I wonder if Croatia are the favorites for this group what do you reckon they've got the experience I mean they've still got that incredible Midfield together they've still got you know brovich Modric you know kovic has come on Leaps and Bounds over the last few years again the question with them is always where are the goals going to come from but Andre kramarich finished the season very well with hoffenheim ante budir scored a winning goal recently they've got different types of forwards they're close to becoming the Lega top scor as well just behind Bellingham and and S and doic and you look at yosko gardial who is really growing in confidence as this rampaging left whereas we knew him as typical pep to completely change things we knew he could play there but he was very much a center back for Abby leig so and now is cian Stuart Pierce yes just give give me 30 seconds on Italy how different are they to the team that won last time out they are different there's a lot of experience gone out the building if you like no bonucci um no keini so that's different uh chiro not selected I wonder how much of it hangs on players like Federico Kaza who's never really quite recaptured the form that he showed at the last Euros injury a part of that luchano spalti has not been with the group for that long so I do have my doubts about them if I'm honest and Spain I don't really fancy Spain at this tournament uh L delente the former under 21 coach who took over from Lis Enrique not the same quality of Coach although of course you have seen that he's made Spain a little bit younger and I think if you look at Spain you might think they're lacking experience they're lacking personality those young players are absolutely fantastic you think the players you most want to watch lamin yal 16 years old there's no doubt that he's going to be starting there but I I just do wonder if they're a little bit unpredictable great winner Croatia group winner Spain okay we kick off with Spain against Croatia and Italy against Albania in group b [Music]
