Switzerland
DWDDWW 📈
Switzerland will be hoping for a repeat of their last result, following a 2-1 WC triumph against Canada.
In that game, Switzerland managed 55% possession and 6 attempts at goal with 4 on target. For Switzerland, the goalscorers were Ruben Vargas (46') and Johan Manzambi (57'). At the other end, Canada had 13 attempts at goal with 7 of them on target. Promise David (76') was the scorer for Canada.
Switzerland have not been the best at stopping their opponents of late, but they’ve also done enough to hit the back of the net themselves. Analysis of their previous 6 games shows that Switzerland have conceded in 5 of them in addition to scoring in 5 of those matches. That pattern might not be carried forward here, however.
Algeria
DWWLWD
In their last game, Algeria drew 3-3 in the WC match with Austria.
In that game, Algeria had 65% possession and 12 shots on goal with 5 of them on target. For Algeria, goals were scored by Rafik Belghali (45') and Riyad Mahrez (60', 90'). For their opponents, Austria had 10 attempts at goal with 3 on target. Marko Arnautović (28'), Marcel Sabitzer (55') and Saša Kalajdžić (90') scored for Austria.
Throughout their 6 previous matches, Algeria have turned their attacks into goals a total of 10 times, giving them the goals per game average of 1.67.
🔮
Prediction
We feel that Algeria may not find it easy to hit the back of the net against this Switzerland lineup who we think should score & stay on top.
That’s why our selection here is for a narrow 1-0 winning margin for Switzerland when the full-time whistle blows.
We’re expecting it to be that close.
