England vs Switzerland: Three Lions keen to secure semis berth of Euro Cup against Swiss Army

England vs Switzerland: Three Lions keen to secure semis berth of Euro Cup against Swiss Army

England vs Switzerland: Harry Kane and Co determined to secure emphatic win over Switzerland to book Euro Cup semis berth

The time has come for England Football Team to step up. Gareth Southgate and his boys haven’t been up to the standard that they have been hyped about. The Three Lions face Switzerland in the quarter finals of Euro Cup and Harry Kane and Co will be desperate for a win. On the flip side, Switzerland too will be ready to put up a big fight against England.

The English team headed into the tournament as the favourites to lift the trophy. But the Three Lions have been far away from their standards. The team have looked clueless and had to reply on ace star Jude Bellingham to save them from their misery. England survived an early scare in the previous game after almost being knocked out by Slovakia.

England Team News

England have suffered a massive blow in the form of Marc Guehi. The English center back suffered an injury in the previous game against Slovakia and with two yellow cards he misses the game against the Swiss. In his place, Erzi Konsa is set to be get his spot in the team.

With England shy of goals, Southgate might be tempted to tweak his formation to allow Ivan Toney to partner Harry Kane at the top of the attack.

Switzerland Team News

It is good news for the Swiss as Granit Xhaka is back from injury. Albeit an initial scare, Xhaka is expected to pass on his fitness test and feature in the crucial game. On the other hand, Yakin is also expected to be ready to feature in the game.

Xhaka is expected to form a solid base in the midfield with Remo Freuler. However, the Swiss side will be hugely dependent on their two attacking players, Vargas and Embolo.
