Switzerland vs Germany Team News 

Denis Zakaria and Steven Zuber remain doubts for Switzerland ahead of tonight's game. Xherdan Shaqiri should keep his spot in the XI after his goal against Scotland. 

Even with a spot in the last-16 secured, Julian Nagelsmann won't make changes to his XI here the meeting with Switzerland, so should keep with the same side that started wins over Scotland and Hungary.

Switzerland vs Germany Key Battle

Granit Xhaka was impressive in Bayer Leverkusen's title success last season and he's continued to shine on familiar territory. Switzerland need only to avoid defeat to wrap up a spot in the last-16 and Xhaka will be key if the Swiss are up upset the odds in Frankfurt tonight.

He won't be the only passmaster on the pitch in Frankfurt with Toni Kroos looking to bow out on a high. The 34-year-old has dictated the tempo for Germany at Euro 2024, ranking top for passes per game (116.5) and with Nagelsmann not expected to rest any key players against Switzerland, expect Kroos to control proceedings once more.

Switzerland vs Germany Score Prediction: Switzerland 1-2 Germany
