MADRID (Reuters) - Spain's election on Sunday will likely produce a win for the centre-right People's Party, opinion polls show, but to form a government it will need a coalition ally in the far-right Vox party - anathema to many Spaniards.

PP leader Alberto Nunez Feijoo, who will potentially let a far-right party into government for the first time since Francisco Franco's rule ended in the 1970s, has focused his campaign on attacking Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's own political deals.
