Spassky, who had the first move, is playing the white pieces, Fischer the black.

Fischer has played Spassky five times in the past, losing all three times he played the black pieces and getting draws both times he played the whites and had the advantage of the first move. A draw counts half a point and a win a point in the 24-game championship match. To dethrone Spassky, Fischer needs 12 points while the Russian can retain his crown with 12 points.
