Switzerland managed to qualify for the previous World Cup in Qatar and did very well, finishing second in a tough group with Brazil, Cameroon, and Serbia. Portugal eliminated them in the 1/8 finals, but it was still a successful run by their standards. They continued with good games in EURO 2024 Qualifiers and are one of the undefeated teams after five rounds. Currently, they sit in 1st place with 11 points, two away from the second-placed Romania.
According to FIFA World Rankings, Andorra are the 154th team in the World and the 50th in Europe (out of 55). The only teams worse than Andorra are Moldova, Malta, Gibraltar, Liechtenstein, and San Marino. In these EURO 2024 Qualifiers, Andorra are 6th with two points, but they played better than most people expected.
Switzerland vs Andorra pick: Under 3.5 goals
Switzerland were three times over 3.5 goals in five rounds. In the last two games, they drew 2:2 vs Kosovo and Romania, allowing goals in in stoppage time against both teams. If they were just a little more disciplined, they could have a maximum of 15 points. Now, we expect them to show us a much better defensive display and keep a clean sheet against one of the weakest teams in Europe. On the other hand, even though Switzerland have a very good team, they only once scored more than three goals in the last 18 matches in all competitions.
Andorra are not winning too many points, but it seems they learned how to defend, and it is not that easy to score against them anymore. In these Qualifiers, they haven't allowed more than two goals per game and even kept a clean sheet in the last game vs Belarus. So far, Andorra were all five times under 3.5 goals.
In the previous h2h game, in June, Switzerland won 2:1. Additionally, all three h2h games between these teams finished with less than 3.5 goals.

Switzerland team news
After a 2:2 draw vs Kosovo, coach Murat Yakin wasn't satisfied with the team. He complained the most about their defense and noted they have to be more disciplined at the back. He also said they had problems with the surface as they are not used to playing in such (poor) conditions.
Due to a cruciate ligament injury, Breel Embolo is not available. The 26-year-old Cameroon-born is probably the best striker in the team. With him out, Zeki Amdouni has been the first option up front, but he had a very quiet game in the last match vs Kosovo.
