England vs Switzerland Team News
England boss Gareth Southgate needs to make at least one change here with Marc Guehi suspended. Aston Villa's Ezri Konsa is in line to replace Guehi in defence, though Lewis Dunk and Joe Gomez are also options.
Southgate is also considering using a three-man backline with Phil Foden and Jude Bellingham in line to start behind Harry Kane. Bukayo Saka, Kieran Trippier and the returning Luke Shaw are all candidates to feature at left wing-back, while Trent Alexander-Arnold might start on the opposite flank.
Switzerland have no injury or suspension concerns, with Silvan Widmer back following a ban. He should come back into the side at right wing-back with Dan Ndoye pushing back into a more advanced role.
England vs Switzerland Probable XIs

Switzerland (3421) - Sommer; Schar, Akanji, Rodriguez; Widmer, Freuler, Xhaka, Aebischer; Vargas, Ndoye; Embolo
England vs Switzerland bet365 Bet Boost
Phil Foden has struggled to transfer his club form to country at Euro 2024 but the hope is that a change in system may bring out the best in the Manchester City star. Indeed, Gareth Southgate is expected to move to a three-man backline, which would see Foden move into a more familiar number 10 role.
Foden ended the Premier League campaign with 19 league goals to his name and he'll surely bag for the first time sooner rather than later. bet365 have boosted their odds on the 24-year-old to score first against Switzerland from 15/2 to 17/2.
