After the home team Germany’s 5-1 victory over Scotland, both Hungary and Switzerland understood that they needed a victory to open up the opportunity to advance.

As for Hungary, they are in extremely high form before EURO 2024 . Dominik Szoboszlai and his teammates won 4/5 recent matches. If counted in the last 16 appearances, they have only lost 1 match.

However, Switzerland is also an opponent that is not easy to play. In the last 14 matches, they only lost once to Romania. However, Swiss fans are still quite worried when the home team drew in 5/8 of their most recent matches.

Hungary and Switzerland are basically considered equal in many aspects. Therefore, the match may take place in an unpredictable scenario and it is likely that the two teams will split the score.

Regarding personnel, Szoboszlai had to leave the field in the friendly match against Israel due to a thigh problem. However, the Liverpool midfielder can still start alongside Roland Sallai.

Coach Marco Rossi is expected to use a 3-4-2-1 formation with Adam Lang, Willi Orban and Attila Szalai as the central defenders, with experienced goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi in goal.

Bournemouth’s Loic Nego and Milos Kerkez will be the two wingers, while Adam Nagy and Andras Schafer link up in the middle. Barnabas Varga, a striker who scored 29 goals for Ferencvaros last season, will lead the attack.

On the other side of the front line, Steven Zuber suffered a calf injury in a friendly match with Austria and his ability to play is unknown. However, AS Monaco couple Breel Embolo and Denis Zakaria have both recovered. Stars such as Granit Xhaka, Manuel Akanji and Xherdan Shaqiri are all expected to start from the start, alongside Burnley striker Zeki Amdouni.

Probable teams:

Hungarian team : Gulacsi, Lang, Orban, Szalai, Nego, Nagy, Schafer, Kerkez, Szoboszlai, Sallai, Vargas.

Swiss team : Sommer, Schar, Akanji, Rodriguez, Widmer, Freuler, Xhaka, Ndoye, Shaqiri, Vargas, Amdouni.

This is the first match for both teams at EURO this year. In the most recent match, Hungary had a 3-0 victory over Israel in a friendly match that took place on June 8 at Nagyerdei Stadion. Barnabás Varga is the hero with a double goal. Marco Rossi and his team got 3 wins and 1 defeat out of 4 matches played in 2024.

As for Switzerland, they are also in good form with 4 consecutive unbeaten matches in all competitions. In their most recent match, they drew 1-1 against Austria at Kybunpark’s home field. Silvan Widmer scored the equalizer for Switzerland.
