Brazil-born Diego Costa could finally make his Spain debut on Wednesday when the world and European champion hosts Italy in one of more than 60 friendly internationals being played worldwide.

All 32 World Cup finalists will be in action, with France meeting the Netherlands in another heavyweight clash, and there will also be a milestone in little-known Mitrovica when Kosovo makes its international debut in a match against Haiti.

Wednesday's matches are the last chance for coaches to fine-tune their teams and try out new players before they send a preliminary list of 30 players to FIFA on May 13.
