England – Form

England’s performance in the European Championship has been inconsistent. Their last game against Slovakia on June 30, 2024, ended in a 1:1 draw at home. Despite being favored, England only managed a draw, with goals from Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane in extra time. They previously had a goalless draw against Slovenia at home. Another 1:1 draw followed this away to Denmark, with Harry Kane scoring. These outcomes suggest England’s performance has been steady.

Switzerland – Form

Switzerland has shown remarkable resilience, with their last three matches ending in draws. They played Austria to a 1:1 draw in a Friendlies match on June 29, 2024. This was unexpected, considering Austria’s winning streak. In the European Championship, they drew 1:1 with Scotland away, with Xherdan Shaqiri scoring. A 1:1 draw with Germany also occurred, with Dan Ndoye scoring for Switzerland. These results met bookmakers’ expectations.
