Below par Switzerland’s dalliance with League A is over for now. The A-Team will face Spain in Match Day 6 before starting plans for League B. Traveling to Spain for this clash, the Swiss are firm underdogs and below is our prediction of the match.
These two nations are operating from the extreme ends of Group A4. Spain leads the standings with 13 points, having only failed to beat Serbia in this group.
The European champions recorded a resounding 4-1 win away to Switzerland when the two nations faced off. However, their only home defeat in the last five Nations League matches was inflicted by Switzerland.
Switzerland are at the bottom of this group with two points, after failing to win any of their five matches. Their game against Serbia on Friday would have produced their first win, but they conceded late to drop two more points in a 1-1 draw.
As the Swiss plot for Spain, they will have it in mind that this hasn’t been an easy task. In the last seven meetings with Spain they managed just one win. It is really a bad period for the Swiss, who come here with one win only in their last nine matches.
In 11 Nations League matches, they managed just three wins.
The last team to beat Spain in the Nations League was Switzerland. In current form, it would take a lot for the Swiss to repeat that feat, even though it would still count for nothing.
Spain come into this game in fine shape and will be outright favorites to bag three more points. For both sides the fates are sealed but a dominant game from Spain is to be expected. Our prediction for Spain v Switzerland is for Spain to win to nil.
