Rafael Benitez thinks that Fabio Capello is "fully aware" of the tough test that awaits England against Spain tomorrow.

Former Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez believes that England boss Fabio Capello has the ability to get a result against Spain as long as he adopts the right tactics.

The Spaniards are favourites to beat the Three Lions tomorrow, but the former Inter Milan boss thinks that Capello's men must try to claim a victory.

"England have to decide how they want to play but Capello is a good coach with a lot of experience and he is fully aware of the difficulties in this game," The Mirror quotes Benitez as saying.

"Despite it being a friendly he knows he has to assemble a team, choose a style of play with an eye on the Euros but at the same time win - or at least give a good account of themselves against the European and World champions."

The international friendly will go ahead at Wembley tomorrow.
