Switzerland Team News:

  • Changes are expected from Switzerland in this match. It will be interesting to see whether Premier League superstars Xherdan Shaqiri and Granit Xhaka start here. Both the players faded in the 2nd half and lacked the energy. They could be replaced here.

  • If that happens, head coach Vladimir Petković will look for Josip Drmic, Renato Steffen and Edimilson Fernandes.
  • We again expect a three-man backline from the Swiss with Fabian Schar, Manuel Akanji and Ricardo Rodriguez all starting at the back.
  • But there will certainly be a change at the wing-back, especially on the right side with Kevin Mbabu getting replaced by Michael Lang. The 24-year-old BSC Young Boys defender struggled against Cristiano Ronaldo. Well, most have in their careers!

England team News:

  • Expect Gareth Southgate to ring in changes here as well with the likes of Jordan Henderson, Harry Kane, Dele Alli and Jese Lingard all coming into the side.

  • Jack Butland is pushing for a start and may replace Jordan Pickford in goal. Though the Everton man had a good game despite leaking three goals, It was mostly down to his teammates’ freebies.
  • The centre-back position should see a change. Liverpool’s Joe Gomez is fit now and could partner Everton’s Michael Keane, replacing John Stones and Harry Maguire at the back. Stones, in particular, was awful on the night against the Dutch.

  • While Trent Alexander-Arnold and Danny Rose will potentially come into the wing-back positions.

Probable XI: Butland (GK), Alexander-Arnold, Keane, Gomez, Rose; Dier, Henderson, Alli, Lingard, Kane, Wilson
