WAL vs SUI Dream11 Prediction: Wales vs Switzerland Team Preview
Wales
Wales will be hoping for another bold performance at the Euros after a spectacular journey to the semi-finals in 2016 when they were defeated by eventual champions Portugal. This time, though, just eight members of that team have been called up, and even they are not the same players as before. However, with the mix of youth and experience, they might turn out to be a surprise package.
Switzerland
Meanwhile, Switzerland‘s appearance in the Round of 16 in the 2016 European Championship was their best in the competition. With a 2-1 triumph over the United States and a 7-0 thumping of rivals Liechtenstein, they extended their winning streak across all competitions. Switzerland is another squad that might emerge as the tournament’s dark horse, having enjoyed a strong run of play leading up to the Euros.
