Having captured the imagination of the fans with a 6-0 demolition job of Qatar<\/a> for a first-ever win at a men’s FIFA World Cup, Canada will now look to make more history against Switzerland on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

A win or draw against the Swiss will be good enough to clinch top spot in Group B, and also put Canada officially through to the knockout stages for the first time in its history. Only a most bizarre mathematical circumstance via a heavy defeat can condemn Canada to third place at this stage.<\/p>\n

Switzerland came in as group favourites but a shock draw against Qatar in their opening match has opened the door for Canada to claim first place. Both teams are tied with four points and Canada holds the superior goal difference. That’s why a draw would be enough, but rest assured Jesse Marsch’s men will look to deliver another big statement with a win.<\/p>\n

What’s at stake? Winning the group would mean Canada would remain in Vancouver for a Round of 32 match on July 2 while second place would send them to Los Angeles on short rest having to play on June 28.<\/p>\n

Here’s how you can watch all the action unfold.<\/p>\n

Who’s playing for Canada?\"VANCOUVER,<\/p>\n

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – JUNE 18: Nathan Saliba #25 of Canada celebrates with teammates after scoring his team’s fourth goal during the FIFA World Cup 2026 Group B match between Canada and Qatar at BC Place Vancouver on June 18, 2026 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

With Isma\u00ebl Kon\u00e9 having been tragically ruled out for the tournament<\/a> with a fractured tibia, the main storyline will be around who replaces him in the starting XI.<\/p>\n

Nathan Saliba came on for Kon\u00e9 against Qatar and almost immediately scored on a free kick. He is the most obvious replacement to occupy the centre of the pitch alongside captain Stephen Eust\u00e1quio.<\/p>\n

All else should remain the same for a Canada team that just dismantled Qatar 6-0, though it will be interesting to see how Marsch manages the yellow cards Alistair Johnston, Derek Cornelius and Luc de Fougerolles have coming into this match. If any of these defenders receive a yellow card against Switzerland, they will be forced to miss the Round of 32 match.<\/p>\n

Alphonso Davies is not expected to start, but with an additional week of recovery since the Qatar match where he was first ruled fit, could be in line for his first appearance of the tournament.<\/p>\n

Previous starting XI: Maxime Cr\u00e9peau, Alistair Johnston, Luc de Fougerolles, Derek Cornelius, Richie Laryea, Tajon Buchanan, Stephen Eust\u00e1quio, Isma\u00ebl Kon\u00e9, Liam Millar, Tani Oluwaseyi, Jonathan David.<\/p>\n

Previous formation: 4-2-2-2<\/p>\n

Full 26-man squad:<\/p>\n

Goalkeepers (3): Maxime Cr\u00e9peau, Owen Goodman, Dayne St. Clair.<\/p>\n

Full-backs (4): Alphonso Davies, Richie Laryea, Alistair Johnston, Niko Sigur.<\/p>\n

Central defenders (5): Mo\u00efse Bombito, Derek Cornelius, Luc de Fougerolles, Alfie Jones, Joel Waterman.<\/p>\n

Wingers (5): Ali Ahmed, Tajon Buchanan, Liam Millar, Jayden Nelson, Jacob Shaffelburg.<\/p>\n

Central midfielders (5): Mathieu Choini\u00e8re. Stephen Eust\u00e1quio, Isma\u00ebl Kon\u00e9, Jonathan Osorio, Nathan Saliba.<\/p>\n

Forwards (4): Jonathan David, Promise David, Cyle Larin, Tani Oluwaseyi.<\/p>\n

Who’s playing for Switzerland?\"INGLEWOOD,<\/p>\n

Switzerland will likely look to stick with the same team that put away Bosnia and Herzegovina 4-1.<\/p>\n

One point of debate may be who starts at forward alongside top target man Breel Embolo, as Dan Ndoye has flattered to deceive through the opening two matches.<\/p>\n

Johan Manzambi, who came on for Ndoye against Bosnia, scored twice and looked very threatening in his time on the pitch. He could have had a hat trick, too, if not for captain Granit Xhaka insisting on taking a 97th minute penalty.<\/p>\n

Previous starting XI: Gregor Kobel, Silvan Widmer, Nico Elvedi, Manuel Akanji, Ricardo Rodriguez, Michel Aebischer, Granit Xhaka \u00a9, Remo Freuler, Fabian Rieder, Breel Embolo, Dan Ndoye.<\/p>\n

Previous formation: 4-3-1-2<\/p>\n

Full 26-man squad:<\/p>\n

Goalkeepers: Gregor Kobel, Yvon Mvogo, Marvin Keller.<\/p>\n

Defenders: Silvan Widmer, Nico Elvedi, Manuel Akanji, Ricardo Rodriguez, Luca Jaquez, Eray Comert, Aurele Amenda.<\/p>\n

Midfielders: Michel Aebischer, Granit Xhaka \u00a9, Remo Freuler, Fabian Rieder, Djibril Sow, Ruben Vargas, Denis Zakaria, Ardon Jashari, Christian Fassnacht, Miro Muheim (INJ).<\/p>\n

Forwards: Breel Embolo, Dan Ndoye, Johan Manzambi, Cedric Itten, Noah Okafor, Zeki Amdouni.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Having captured the imagination of the fans with a 6-0 demolition job of Qatar for a first-ever win…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":90715,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4],"tags":[45768,45769,45758,42312,20688,36746,23391,563,36987,36989,44890,23401,45771,20689,45753,36992,23400,20916,23396,45759,45770,45766,3787,45772,36986,39829,45757,5912,45765,45756,36995,609,36988,45761,36895,23502,44892,45754,23389,45773,5068,45767,45764,599,23398,23387,45763,45755,23388,23397,17,45762,45760,36991,24473],"class_list":["post-90714","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-switzerland","tag-alfie-jones","tag-ali-ahmed","tag-alistair-johnston","tag-alphonso-davies","tag-ardon-jashari","tag-bosnia-and-herzegovina","tag-breel-embolo","tag-canada","tag-cedric-itten","tag-christian-fassnacht","tag-cyle-larin","tag-dan-ndoye","tag-dayne-st-clair","tag-denis-zakaria","tag-derek-cornelius","tag-djibril-sow","tag-fabian-rieder","tag-granit-xhaka","tag-gregor-kobel","tag-ismael-kone","tag-jacob-shaffelburg","tag-jayden-nelson","tag-jesse-marsch","tag-joel-waterman","tag-johan-manzambi","tag-jonathan-david","tag-jonathan-osorio","tag-jordan","tag-liam-millar","tag-luc-de-fougerolles","tag-luca-jaquez","tag-manuel-akanji","tag-marvin-keller","tag-maxime-crepeau","tag-michel-aebischer","tag-miro-muheim","tag-moise-bombito","tag-nathan-saliba","tag-nico-elvedi","tag-niko-sigur","tag-noah-okafor","tag-owen-goodman","tag-promise-david","tag-qatar","tag-remo-freuler","tag-ricardo-rodriguez","tag-richie-laryea","tag-rogers-ignite-tv","tag-ruben-vargas","tag-silvan-widmer","tag-switzerland","tag-tajon-buchanan","tag-tani-oluwaseyi","tag-yvon-mvogo","tag-zeki-amdouni"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/90714","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=90714"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/90714\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/90715"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=90714"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=90714"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=90714"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
