Switzerland will be looking for a positive start to their 2022 World Cup campaign as they take on Cameroon in the Group G opener this morning.
Vladimir Petkovic’s side are hoping to replicate their exploits at the last major tournament, when they eliminated France from Euro 2020.
Granit Xhaka and Xherdan Shaqiri will lead the Swiss charge in Qatar and they will first face CAN’s most successful team in Cameroon.
The “Indomitable Lions” will make their eighth appearance on the biggest stage in the world but will be keen to do better than in previous years.
They have managed just one victory in 15 group stage matches in the last five tournaments combined with Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo and co looking to change their fortunes.
