SUI vs GER Match Preview
Despite Scotland’s opener in the 13th minute, Switzerland got back into the game near the half-hour-mark with a spectacular equalizer from Xherdan Shaqiri. The team failed to take the other chances to win the match for them as it ended in a 1-1 stalemate. However, the point earned kept Murat Yakin’s men in the second spot having picked their opening-day win over Hungary. Four points from two games put Switzerland on the doorstep of Round of 16 qualification with leaders Germany to face in the final group game. Avoiding defeat on Sunday will take the Swiss through or Scotland needs to fall against Hungary if they lose. Goal difference will come into play if both end on the same points. Die Nati should be confident about their chances after staying unbeaten in the last six games in all competitions and not losing the final match of a group stage in their Euro history. Switzerland are also undefeated in their previous three meetings against Germany hoping to prevent an easy pass for the hosts again.
Germany followed their record opening day win, 5-1 against Scotland, with a 2-0 victory over Hungary to book their berth in the last-16. Jamal Musiala got himself on the scoresheet for back-to-back Euro matches with provider-turned-scorer Ilkay Gundogan sealing the win in the 67th minute. All is left for the hosts to seal the top spot in Group A by avoiding any upset against Switzerland in the final group game. As group winners, Germany will take on the runners-up of Group C so Julian Nagelsmann will be serious about the encounter carrying a six-game unbeaten streak in all competitions. Five of them have been wins although Die Mannschaft will require just a point to return as group winners. Switzerland has collected only one win in their last 21 meetings with Germany so it should not be a fixture for the hosts to struggle.
