Team News

Switzerland boss Murat Yakin recalled young forward Noah Okafor to the squad for this set of fixtures and the attacker was handed a start against Israel. The Swiss have no fresh injury concerns for this one but they will be without Edmilson Fernandes who is suspended.

Kosovo have no fresh injury concerns heading into Saturday's fixture.

Both teams to score @ 11/10

These two sides played out a 2-2 draw when they met back in September. There was positive play in attack from both teams and also some questionable defending as well. A week ago, Kosovo defeated Israel 1-0, while Switzerland drew 1-1 with them in midweek.

Kosovo will certainly provide the Swiss with a challenge on Saturday night, and while a victory would see Yakin's men qualify for the tournament finals, they will have to be at their very best to ensure it. Kosovo certainly have it within them to cause them problems once again.

Switzerland 2-1 @ 15/2

After having to settle for a point against Israel last time out, Switzerland will relish the chance to be back on home soil and have a raucous crowd supporting them to try and help them over the line. We touched on how this game was an interesting encounter two months ago, and the Swiss will hope that experience will have prepared them better for this meeting.

Switzerland boast a lot of talent throughout their squad but they will need it to shine through on Saturday as anything less than a win will leave their chances of qualification vulnerable if Israel were to beat Romania, who Switzerland would then face on Tuesday in what could be a massive game of football.

To avoid all that added stress, we're expecting them to wrap it up early with a 2-1 win here.
