Switzerland vs Colombia prediction 07.07.2026 | World Cup

Switzerland had an excellent World Cup Qualifiers and arrived at the tournament with pretty big aspirations. Luckily for them, they had a pretty easy group and eventually topped it with seven points. In the knockout phase, they probably played their best match thus far and easily won 2:0 against Algeria. They are a well-organized and stable team, but we feel that they lacked some spark up front. However, since coach Murat Yakin introduced Johan Manzambi into the starting lineup, they have looked much more dangerous going forward.

In the previous game against Algeria, Denis Zakaria had to leave the field a few minutes before the end of the match due to injury. However, according to credible sources, the injury isn't too serious, and the 29-year-old should be in the starting eleven.

Colombia managed to win Group K by getting seven points, finishing in front of Portugal. They looked very good in the group and deservedly topped the group, which alone says how good this team is. In the knockout phase, they won 1:0 against Ghana, in a match they completely controlled and probably deserved to win by a bigger margin. We were particularly impressed with their defense, considering they allowed just one goal in the World Cup, and, incredibly, that was against Uzbekistan. 

Jhon Cordoba suffered an injury in the previous game against Ghana and had to leave the field after only eight minutes. According to the first news, the 33-year-old striker suffered a serious injury and will most likely miss the upcoming game(s).
