Match Preview

Switzerland faces Bosnia & Herzegovina at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles in a Group B fixture that could decide second place behind co-hosts Canada. Captain Granit Xhaka leads a Swiss side built around Akanji, Embolo and the form goalkeeper Gregor Kobel. Bosnia, back at the World Cup for the first time since 2014, lean on the experience of Pjanić and the goals of Džeko under coach Sergej Barbarez. The match is a clear knockout-route shaper.
