Switzerland faces Turkey in round 3 of the Euro group stage. The match will be played on Sunday, June 20th at Baku Olympic Stadium (Baku)
The Swiss national team put itself in an unpleasant situation before the end of the Euro group stage. The mentor, Vladimir Petkovic, said bluntly that his players would retain their chances for the knockout rounds only if they won on Sunday. Moreover, the Red Crosses can be saved by the regulations of the current tournament, when the four best third teams go further. But Switzerland should blame itself for the fact that it is now obliged to fight for three points. The defeat to the current Italians in the 2nd round was not surprising, as Squadra Azzurra is now incredibly strong. But before that, the Swiss let the victory over Wales slip away. They had an advantage a week ago, and Embolo justly opened the scoring. But the Welsh responded with Moore's efforts and managed to keep a 1-1 draw. On the other hand, now Switzerland has an extremely clear understanding of what needs to be achieved in their match in the group.

Turkey became one of the disappointments of the tournament. Theoretically, there are some chances of a positive outcome, and a victory in the last match guarantees a rise to 3rd place. If the Turks don't make it to the playoffs, they will at least make up for their failures in front of the fans. But it is not clear how Senol Gunes's charges can be transformed. At the very least, they can add only one half to their assets — the first one in the match against the Italians, when they managed not to concede. But after the break, the favorite gained a 3-0 victory. And the Crescent-Stars completely disappointed their fans in the game against Wales. Calhanoglu and Cengiz Under did not create scoring chances. Burak Yilmaz still caught the chance, but his header after a corner was turned away by Ward. Star defense led by Soyuncu and Demiral couldn't withstand the pressure. Even though Bale missed the penalty, his team won 2-0. And the Turks were more remembered for how they scuffled and shoved. Will an experienced mentor be able to motivate his men? And remind them that they looked great back in the spring?
So far, the Turks have an advantage in head-to-head matches. They won five out of nine games and suffered only two defeats. And the last two games ended in victories for the Crescent Stars. Now bookmakers think the Swiss will win. They really look more organized, and we are betting that Vladimir Petkovic's charges will gain victory in the key match.
Prediction for the match: Switzerland to win
