Switzerland’s Path to Euro 2024: Overcoming Romania and Belarus for Qualification

2023-10-13 11:25:07

The misstep of Romania, unable to break the Belarusian barrier in Budapest (0-0), opens a royal path for the Swiss team. If they beat Belarus on Sunday in St. Gallen, they will have practically assured their qualification for the final phase of Euro 2024 in Germany.

A second victory against Belarus, against whom it won 5-0 in Novi Sad last March, should indeed be enough for Switzerland. With 1 point ahead of Romania which has one more match and 3 over Israel which risks not being able to play its last 4 matches due to the war against Hamas, Switzerland is no longer in any real danger in this group I.

Joined on the wire by Romania in Lucerne and by Kosovo in Pristina for two 2-2 draws that looked like defeats, Switzerland could end this campaign in style with Sunday’s meeting in a sold-out Kybunpark. This match will allow Granit he had been replaced, much to his fury, in the 63rd.

With four French-speaking people?

In Saint-Gall, we could find for the first time in a long time 4 French-speaking players starting at kick-off. Denis Zakaria and Zeki Amdouni could, in fact, receive reinforcement. If Murat Yakin opts for a 4-man defense, Jordan Lotomba should occupy the right flank. The Yverdonois’ last selection dates back to June 5, 2022. He played as left back for the entirety of a match lost 4-0 in Lisbon against Portugal in the Nations League.
