Switzerland host Israel at the Stade de Geneve on Tuesday (March 28) in the 2024 European Championship qualifiers.
The hosts kicked off their qualification campaign in style with a 5-0 demolition of Belarus at the Karadjordje Stadium on Saturday (March 25). Renato Steffen gave the A-Team an early lead from close range and clinched a hat-trick by half-time before Granit Xhaka and Basel's Zeki Amdouni netted in the second half. Switzerland have appeared in the last two editions of the European Championship.
Israel, meanwhile, had to settle for a 1-1 draw with Kosovo in their first game last week. The Blues and Whites went behind in the first half after Eli Dasa inadvertently turned the ball into his own goal but restored parity with a well-taken finish from Dor Peretz early after the restart.
