Prediction: 4-0
Andorra
Switzerland and Andorra go head to head at Stade de Tourbillon in a David-vs-Goliath clash. The Rossocrociati dropped two points in a 2-2 draw with Kosovo, but they are still leading the chase for the EURO 2024 automatic qualification. Barring any fresh injury worries, head coach Murat Yakin is unlikely to make changes to the team that share the spoils with the Kosovars.
The minnows, meanwhile, played out a goalless draw with Belarus on Saturday, but they will have a mountain to climb in Sion. As Switzerland are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Andorra with their hands empty. There are no injury concerns in the away team ahead of the trip to Switzerland. It has to be noted that the Rossocrociati defeated the Tricolors 2-1 earlier in the process.
Highlighted Player (Granit Xhaka):
Granit Xhaka is widely regarded as one of Europe’s most talented central midfielders at the moment and he is on the radar of quite a few high-profile sides. Just two seasons at FC Basel proved enough to attract interest from Borussia M’gladbach, who secured his signature in the summer of 2012.
The Switzerland international had a slow start to his career in Germany, causing many pundits to start doubting his credentials, but he eventually turn things around to show he is more than capable of playing at the highest level. Acting as a deep-lying playmaker, Xhaka impressed fans and pundits alike with his performances in Bundesliga and European competitions, and he even managed to score a couple of important goals in the process.
Despite his fragile age, the highly regarded footballer has been a key member of the Switzerland national team for quite some time now, scoring 6 goals in his first 40 caps to establish himself as a real leader of the Rossocrociati. The 2014 World Cup, where he scored one goal in four starts, should prove just the first of many major tournaments to come.
Highlighted Team (Andorra):
Andorra national football team played their first official game in 1996, with the team suffering a 6-1 loss to Estonia. The Tricolours have been participating in both European Championship qualifiers and World Cup qualifiers since 2000, but they have yet to make it to the finals of the major tournament.
Andorra have established themselves as a cannon fodder for their rivals, but it has to be noted that they did well to beat Macedonia in the 2006 World Cup qualifier (1-0). The Andorrans play their home games at Estadio Nacional in Andorra la Vella and you should bear in mind that they suffered their biggest defeat in an official match on June 4, 2005 when they were outclassed by Czech Republic in Liberec.
Speaking of their biggest win, the minnows recorded a 2-0 victory over Belarus in a friendly game in Aixovall. The likes of Ildefons Lima and Oscar Sonejee are the most notable footballers who represented Andorra on the international stage.
