England coach Fabio Capello believes Spain are outright favourites to win the World Cup.

"Spain are playing very well and they have plenty of faith after having won Euro 2008," he told Radio Marca.

"Furthermore, their coach [Vicente Del Bosque] is my friend and he knows what to do in every moment.

"Therefore I think Spain are a worthy candidate for victory in the final."

Having coached Real Madrid, Capello feels they can win the title this season as they sit on top of La Liga, level on points with Barcelona.

"[Manuel] Pellegrini is doing an excellent job and there is faith," he added.

"They understand that they can beat Barcelona and do well against everyone."
