The quarter-finals of the Euro will witness an exciting match between England and Switzerland on July 6, 2024. Both teams are eager to advance to the next round of the tournament.
Key Statistics and Trends
- England's Recent Performance: England has only managed 1 win in their last 8 full-time matches.
- Switzerland's Unbeaten Streak: Switzerland remains unbeaten this year, with 8 consecutive matches without a loss.
England – Team Form and Analysis: The "Three Lions" had a confident run in last year’s qualifiers, overcoming their main rival Italy in both encounters to secure the top spot. However, in the Euros, Southgate has reverted to his cautious tactics. England secured one victory in the group stage against Serbia, followed by draws against Denmark (1-1) and Slovenia (0-0). The match against Slovakia saw a last-minute equalizer by Bellingham, and Kane's extra-time goal secured a 2-1 victory.
Switzerland – Team Form and Analysis: The "Neutrals" had a shaky qualification, managing to advance despite a loss to Romania and draws against Kosovo, Belarus, and Israel. Friendly matches did not bring much success either. Yet, Murat Yakin’s squad performed well in the Euros, starting with a 3-1 win over Hungary, and draws against Scotland and Germany were sufficient to reach the play-offs. In the knockouts, Switzerland defeated Italy with a convincing 2-0 win.
England: Team News Guehi will miss this crucial match due to a suspension from the previous game.
Switzerland: Team News Widmer is back in the lineup after serving a suspension, while Xhaka, despite some discomfort, is fit to play.
Possible Starting Line-ups
- England: Pickford – Trippier, Dunk, Stones, Walker – Rice, Mainoo, Foden, Bellingham, Saka – Kane.
- Switzerland: Sommer – R. Rodriguez, Akanji, Schar – Aebischer, Vargas, Rieder, G. Xhaka, Freuler, Widmer – Embolo.
Head-to-Head Matches: Historically, England has dominated Switzerland, losing only once. In their last five encounters, England won four times and secured third place on penalties after a 0-0 draw in the 2019 Nations League.
Free Prediction for the Match England vs Switzerland Expect a tough and unspectacular match, with Southgate's men likely edging out a victory. Considering the defensive strengths and scoring capabilities, betting on "total: over 2.0" (odd: 1.89) seems reasonable.
