Switzerland host Spain on matchday 3 of the UEFA Nations League 2022-23 at Stade de Genève in the wee hours of Friday, June 10. The match will kick-off at 12:15 AM IST (Indian Standard Time).

Spain manager Luis Enrique had made a host of changes to his starting XI against the Czech Republic, but regular starters like Pau Torres, Cesar Azpilicueta, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets are likely to return to the line-up against Switzerland.

The host team, on the other hand, will miss the services of veteran centre-back Fabian Schar after he was cautioned for the second time in as many games during his last outing.

Switzerland vs Spain prediction and football betting tips for UEFA Nations League 2022-23

Spain are expected to have a more familiar starting XI against Switzerland than they had against the Czechs which make them the outright favourites to beat Switzerland. And given Switzerland’s recent defensive record followed by Fabian Schar’s suspension, the home team will need more than just luck to hold Spain at least for a draw.

Spain are undeniably the better team on paper which is mostly why they are the odds on favourites too.
