SWEDEN v SWITZERLAN­D

- CHRIS SUTTON’S

TODAY, 3pm ST PETERSBURG, BBC1

SWITZERLAN­D may have surprised a few by getting this far but not me. They are a supremely organised side with 22-year-old Manuel Akanji outstandin­g. Sweden lack an Ibrahimovi­c or Larsson up top to go further.

MY VERDICT: 2-1 Switzerlan­d

SWEDEN (4-4-2, probable): Olsen; Lustig, Lindelof, Granqvist, Augustinss­on; Claesson, Svensson, Ekdal, Forsberg; Berg, Toivonen. SWITZERLAN­D (4-2-3-1, probable): Sommer; Lang, Djourou, Akanji, Rodriguez; Behrami, Xhaka; Shaqiri, Dzemaili, Zuber; Drmic. Referee: Damir Skomina (Slovenia). Radio: LIVE on BBC 5 Live & talkSPORT.
