About this match

**Switzerland rocks up to Skopje as heavy favorites**, but North Macedonia's home fortress and recent defensive solidity could make this trickier than expected. 🇨🇭

Switzerland are buzzing—three wins in five, including a clean sheet at home vs Colombia. North Macedonia? Tough run: losses to Türkiye, but two consecutive 0-0 draws suggest they know how to bunker. The hosts will need to stay compact and nick something on the break.

Key storylines:

- **Xhaka & Freuler** anchoring Switzerland's midfield, but the Nati are missing muscle injuries (Zakaria, Jaquez) and suspensions (Embolo) that hurt their attacking depth

- **Miovski & Ristovski** tasked with leading North Macedonia's counterattack and making life uncomfortable for an Akanji-Elvedi backline

- Home-field desperation: Skopje hasn't seen a Nations League win in ages, and the crowd will push hard early

Expected lineups:

- **North Macedonia**: Dimitrievski, Zajkov, Stojchevski, Musliu, Alioski, Ilievski, Elmas, Alimi, Atanasov, Miovski, Ristovski

- **Switzerland**: Kobel, Rodríguez, Akanji, Elvedi, Cömert, Xhaka, Freuler, Ndoye, Rieder, Fassnacht, Amdouni

Prediction:

**Switzerland 2–0 North Macedonia** 🎯

The Nati's form and control should grind out a routine away win, though North Macedonia's defensive shape keeps it contained.
