Switzerland vs Algeria Preview

A couple of sides who will have hopes of extending their World Cup run to beyond the last 32 meet here, as Switzerland take on Algeria.

The Swiss progressed as group winners from a tough pool which included Canada and Bosnia & Herzegovina, which should give them plenty of confidence here.

Algeria meanwhile were made to work hard to sneak through from their pool, alongside Argentina and Austria and they will fancy their chances of causing an upset here.

Neither of these sides are being tipped by too many World Cup betting sites to go deep in the tournament but they both possess plenty of quality.

The stage is set here in Vancouver, and it should be a belter, with a spot in the last 16 on the line.

Here is a look ahead to Switzerland vs Algeria:

Best Bet

Switzerland to win the match @ $2.10

While the looked laboured in their opening game draw with Qatar, Switzerland have bounced back impressively in the World Cup.

A big win over Bosnia was backed up with a very solid showing against Canada and the last 32 was made with relative ease.

They have enjoyed some decent runs at major tournaments in recent years, and they will be looking to draw on those experiences as they chase a spot in the last 16 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Algeria are in unchartered territory by reaching the knockout stages of the World Cup and they will want to push the Swiss all the way.

This could be tight between Switzerland and Algeria, but the Swiss could get the job done in this one.

Same Game Multi Bet

Switzerland to win the match, under 2.5 goals and a penalty to be awarded @ $6.00

Bet Now

A huge part of why Switzerland have been so impressive in major tournaments of late is their notoriously stringent defence.

They will be looking to give Algeria no space to operate in and when they get their chance, they will look to get the ball forwards quickly.

Goals in this one could be at a premium, especially with so much at stake for both teams and they won’t want to take too many risks.

Cagey games are often decided in key moments, and it could be a penalty that ultimately tips this encounter, one way or the other.

Best Value Bet

Breel Embolo to score anytime @ $3.40

Bet Now

Switzerland are a side with endless attacking options, but Breel Embolo continues to be the pick of the bunch.

Not only does he have pace to burn but he is also very composed in front of goal and if he gets a chance, Embolo looks very good value to bag another important goal for the Swiss here.
