Switzerland vs Sweden Prediction and Betting Tips | November 15 2025

Switzerland welcome Sweden to Geneva's Stade de Geneve this Saturday for a FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifying match.

Switzerland will be hoping to claim the win to take them to next year's tournament in North America here, while Sweden cannot afford to lose if they want to have any chance of qualifying.

So who will come out on top in this match this weekend?

Switzerland vs Sweden Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

• Switzerland and Sweden have faced off on four occasions in recent years, with two wins for Sweden, one for Switzerland and one draw. The most notable clash between them came in the 2018 World Cup's round of 16, when Sweden dumped the Swiss out of the tournament. Last time they played, though, in October, Switzerland ran out 0-2 winners.
• Switzerland currently sit at the top of their World Cup qualifying group, and look odds on to make it to North America next summer. They are unbeaten in eight matches since losing to Spain last November, and have won three and drawn one of their most recent qualifying games.
• Sweden, on the other hand, have hit a really bad patch of form recently. They come into this game with a single point to their name in qualifying after losing their last three matches in a row, with two losses to Kosovo and a defeat to Switzerland putting an end to the reign of former manager Jon Dahl Tomasson.
• New Sweden boss Graham Potter will be unable to call upon three Premier League stars for this game. Tottenham's Dejan Kulusevski is a long-term injury concern, while his club teammate Lucas Bergvall has now withdrawn after suffering a concussion. Viktor Gyokeres will also miss out, but Liverpool's Alexander Isak has been included despite a recent groin injury.
• Switzerland's home record in recent years is fantastic. Since the start of 2020, the Swiss have only lost twice at home in 20 competitive fixtures, with both losses coming to the same team - current European champions Spain.

Switzerland vs Sweden Prediction

While these teams would be considered evenly-matched on paper, many things appear to be pointing to a Switzerland victory here.

Not only do the Swiss have an excellent home record in recent years, but Sweden are on a brutal run of form, and it's hard to imagine them having an instant "new manager bounce" here with a number of key players missing.

Add in the fact that Switzerland brushed Sweden aside with little difficulty in October, and while it might not be a thumping win, the prediction is a home victory.

Prediction: Switzerland 2-0 Sweden
