Switzerland have been a solid team for a while now and many consider this side to be the golden generation. The only concern for them ahead of this tie is the fitness of Yann Sommer – he could well miss this clash against Cameroon. Xhaka has been superb in recent months with Arsenal and will hold the key for this country as well.

Cameroon too will be quietly confident ahead of this clash. Their squad is quite solid – Onana has been in decent form with Inter Milan while Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has been superb for Bayern Munich.
