Gibraltar vs Switzerland Prediction & Betting tips
On Monday, the last two group matches will be played in qualifying group D. Gibraltar has no point left in the seven games, Switzerland is currently second with fourteen points and has everything in its own hands. If it wins from Gibraltar just like in the home match (4-0), it is certain of a place in the European Championship 2020.
Gibraltar:
Gibraltar participated for the first time in the European Championship qualification for the 2016 European Championship and then lost all ten games. Subsequently, the country was also admitted to FIFA and lost it there again ten times in the qualification for the 2018 World Cup. Also this year Gibraltar seems to be left behind without points, a stunt against Switzerland seems to be out of the question.
It is no surprise that the dwarf state of only 6.8 kmĀ² has not won a qualifying match yet, it has only 34,000 inhabitants and actually no known players. Last Friday, 6-0 was lost in Denmark, there were nine players from the Gibraltar competition in the field. Only Mohammad Badr (Al Ahly) and striker Tjay de Barr (Real Oviedo) earn their money elsewhere. In addition, Liam Walker has played for Portsmouth in the past, he is the man with the most caps for the country.
It is not only bad for the team of coach Ribas. For example, during the Nations League it managed to record victories in both Liechtenstein and Armenia. In this final game, home team Armenia got 34 shots, nine of which were on target while Gibraltar had to do it with six shots, two of which were on target.
Switzerland:
Switzerland seems to be participating in the European Championship for the fourth time in the last five editions, only in 2012 were the Swiss missing in the final tournament. Especially the 2-0 win over Ireland last month gave Petkovic’s team a big step in the right direction. Benfica’s Seferovic opened the score after fifteen minutes of play, after which the liberating 2-0 fell to ten men in injury time.
Three important points were again taken last Friday. The home game against Georgia should not normally be a problem for the Swiss, but the liberating 1-0 did not last very long. Even without the still injured Xherdan Shaqiri, no fewer than 25 opportunities were created, ten times the Georgian goal was attacked. Fifteen minutes before time, Cedric Itten from St. Gallen headed a great pass from Denis Zakaria. A dream debut for 22-year-old Itten who had only been in the field for six minutes.
Vladimir Petkovic indicated that his team had thrown his forces on Friday and that he must be there on Monday against Gibraltar. “We took too many risks against Georgia in the second half, luckily it all worked out in the end.”
