EURO 2024: Switzerland vs Germany Live
Preview: Switzerland vs Germany
Switzerland vs Germany will take place at the Deutsche Bank Park on Sunday at 7:00pm as Switzerland seek to avoid defeat to secure a spot in the knockout stages. Germany secured their spot in the next round after a 2-0 win over Hungary in their last match whiles Switzerland drew 1-1 with Scotland in their last match.
After earning four points in their first two matches at EURO 2024, Switzerland is on the verge of securing a spot in the knockout stage. Just one more point will guarantee them second place, regardless of Scotland’s results. This is not unexpected considering Switzerland’s strong performance in their last 16 matches, with 7 wins, 8 draws, and 1 loss. In the previous Euro tournament, Switzerland reached the quarter-finals, defeating the reigning world champions France, showcasing their ability to perform well against top teams.
The hosts got off to a strong start by defeating Scotland and Hungary easily, securing a spot in the knockout stages with a game to spare. While young talents like Florian Wirtz and Jamal Musiala have shone, Julian Nagelsmann’s Germany team could become the oldest Euro champions ever, with an average squad age of over 28. This mix of youth and experience has been successful on home turf, where they are undefeated in their last five games (4 wins, 1 draw), a streak they hope to continue in pursuit of a flawless Euro group stage for the first time since 2012.
Head-to-head
Switzerland has one win from their last five meetings against Germany, losing two and drawing two. Their most recent meeting with Germany ended in a 3-3 draw.
Prediction
Switzerland let down their supporters with a 1-1 draw against Scotland on Wednesday. Despite dominating the game, they struggled to score against the Scots. Meanwhile, Germany is performing exceptionally well and is expected to complete the group stage with a flawless record, effortlessly creating multiple scoring opportunities.
