1. "Daily Mail Sports" visited the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium on Monday. At that time, the stadium was suffering from high temperatures and seven sprinklers had been spraying the lawn in the 48 hours before kick-off. Course maintenance is in full swing and the turf is being mowed, so rough is unlikely to affect Wednesday's game.
Whether the course will be slippery remains to be seen.
The Daily Mail Sports section was told by a staff member that "they will use sprinklers to spray the lawn about two minutes before kick-off time to increase the humidity of the lawn."
