Spain forward Pedro feels that their Confederations Cup game against Tahiti on Thursday will not be as easy as many are predicting.
The world and European champions face a side who only have one professional player in their ranks in Marama Vahirua, but the Barcelona man feels that the game will still be difficult for Vicente del Bosque's men.
"[Tahiti] have some fast players, as we saw against Nigeria, so it's going to be tough for us," Pedro told reporters.
"The team has to play its normal game. We respect the opponent, and go into the game as normal. It is true that in principle that we are favourites but every game is tough."
Tahiti were beaten 6-1 by Nigeria on Monday, while Spain overcame Uruguay 2-1 on Sunday.
