England take on Switzerland in quarterfinal match of UEFA Euro 2024. The match will be played on Saturday, July 6th at Merkur Spiel-Arena (Düsseldorf).
The England national team was just moments away from their first and only defeat in the current EURO - in their last match against Slovakia, which took place in the Round of 16. If that had happened, the coach of the "Lions" would have been pelted not with plastic cups by the disappointed British fans, as happened after the match against Slovenia, but with something heavier, like plastic chairs and so on. In short, the patriarchs of football delivered another questionable match at the current European Championship in their clash with Slovakia, salvaging a draw in the 96th minute (1-1 in regular time). They likely turned even more neutral fans against them after such a display! I remind you that, a little earlier in the group stage, the England goalkeeper was also embarrassed by the Danish team (1-1 draw).

Switzerland, on the other hand, continues to gain supporters from all over Europe during the current European Championship. They are showing us a very progressive and modern style of football with a clear attacking focus, which has already managed to baffle the defensive setups of Hungary (3-1), Scotland (1-1), Germany (1-1), and Italy (2-0). In short, the Alpine "Crusaders" have not yet failed to score in this championship, which essentially guarantees a successful outcome for my prediction here.
Most likely, not just I will root with great pleasure for the much more appealing, in all playing aspects, Swiss team. I sincerely wish them victory over the long-annoying English, who refuse to move away from their completely anti-football, melancholic tactics. Of course, you can’t get far on just an emotional wave in betting. But indeed, the current Swiss team looks like one that is quite capable of halting the "Lions" from progressing further in the playoff bracket. In any case, a goal from the "Bankers" here doesn't seem like a surprise. They have long demonstrated their ability to score against football giants, including in knockout games, dating back to the last EURO, where they first stunned the French (three times - 3-3), and then the Spaniards (1-1).
Prediction for the match: Switzerland to score – yes.
