Manager: Vicente del Bosque
Captain: Iker Casillas

Manager: Ottmar Hitzfeld
Captain: Alexander Frei
Premier League players: Philippe Senderos (Arsenal), Johan Djourou (Arsenal), Valon Behrami (West Ham United).

"We have had some luck with the group. It could have been worse - look at the group with Brazil, Ivory Coast and Portugal," Switzerland coach Ottmar Hitzfeld told Swiss TV.

"Chile is a match we must win if we want to get to the quarter-finals, Honduras are clearly the outsiders in the group."

How Honduras qualified for World Cup 2010: CONCACAF 3rd place.

Manager: Reinaldo Rueda
Captain: Amado Guevara
Premier League players: Maynor Figueroa (Wigan Athletic), Wilson Palacios (Tottenham Hotspur), Hendry Thomas (Wigan Athletic).

"The group is very balanced, with two strong European teams and another good opponent in Chile. Spain is very strong. Chile has developed significantly over the past year and will be a great competitor," Honduras coach Reinaldo Rueda told reporters.

"We believe it will be a lot of work, it will be tough, but we can hope."

How Chile qualified for World Cup 2010: South American Group, 2nd.

Manager: Marcelo Bielsa
Captain: Claudio Bravo
Premier League players: None.

"We all have a 25 percent chance... Spain perhaps a bit more but we are confident about our team. Switzerland is a little better team than us... they beat us in 2007 and they had a wonderful qualification in the European Championship," said Harold Mayne Nicholls, the president of the Chilean FA.

"Spain has one of the best teams. We played against them last November and they beat us 3-0. There is a little bit of a difference between us and them. But football is still a game in which nobody can predict anything."
