Portugal they won two of their three group games and it was enough for them to finish in first place, giving them a chance to face Swissa country that in the previous one appears with fewer chances than the team led by Cristiano Ronaldo.

Despite having a squad with players from the best teams in the world, Portugal is not a solid team, although it has shown great speed on the flanks and surprise offensively.

No considerable changes are expected in the Portuguese eleven, and neither in the Swedish. One of the changes would be in defense, with the entry of Diogo Dalot as a right back, which would leave Joao Cancelo as a left back.

In Switzerland there are still doubts about the goalkeeper’s return Yann Sommerwho caught a cold a few days ago, which prevented him from being present in the duel against Serbia, where the Swiss won 3-2 and achieved their classification.

Possible alignments of Portugal vs. Swiss

• Portugal: Coast; Dalot, Pepe, Days, I cancel; B. Silva, Neves, Carvalho; Fernandez; Felix, Ronaldo
• Switzerland: Sommer/Kobel; Widmer, Akanji, Schar, Rodriguez; Freuler, Xhaka; Shaqiri, Sow, Vargas; Plunger

It is the first time that both teams meet in a World Cup, but in the general history the numbers are negative for the Portuguese. Of 25 matches, Portugal won 9, Switzerland 11 and they drew 5 times.
