Meanwhile, for Switzerland, they are confident here as they won six of their last nine matches against their opponent. Additionally, Switzerland have been fairly impressive over the past few years which is why a win is possible here. The meeting between these two teams is on June 15, 2024, at 9:00 PM (GMT+8).
Hungary FC
Hungary, ranked 26th in the world by FIFA, is preparing for their third consecutive European Championship appearance. The team has only lost one of their last 14 internationals since 2023 and has gone unbeaten through Euro 2024 qualifying, winning five and drawing three games out of eight. Hungary made the trip to Germany after a 3-0 victory at home to Israel in their final warm-up match. They will be keen to make a winning start in Group A of Euro 2024, but they face Switzerland, who have won six of the last nine meetings between the two nations. The Magyars raced into a three-goal lead in the opening 22 minutes, thanks to an 11th-minute opener from Roland Sallai and a brace from Barnabas Varga.
Dominik Szoboszlai, a Liverpool midfielder, is set to start alongside Roland Sallai in a 3-4-2-1 formation for the upcoming match against Hungary. The team will use a central defence, with Milos Kerkez as wing-back and Adam Nagy and Schafer as midfielders.
Switzerland FC
Hungary and Switzerland will face off in a major tournament for the second time, with the former winning the previous match by a 2-0 scoreline at the 1938 World Cup. Switzerland, ranked 19th in the world by FIFA, has been preparing for their first Euros as Swiss boss, with a four-game unbeaten run since the turn of the year. Switzerland faced Estonia 4-0 in their first two warm-up matches and played out a 1-1 draw with Austria last weekend. The pressure is on manager Murat Yakin to steer Switzerland into the knockout rounds and follow in the footsteps of his predecessors, who have advanced from the group stage in each of the last five European Championships and reached the quarter-finals at Euro 2020. The Swiss aim to replicate this summer’s success.
Switzerland’s Steven Zuber is a doubt for Saturday’s game due to a calf injury. Monaco’s Breel Embolo and Denis Zakaria are expected to make the squad. Stars like Granit Xhaka, Manuel Akanji, and Xherdan Shaqiri are expected to start.
