Without two-time World Cup and two-time European Championship participant Vladmir Petkovic, the Swiss team will compete in its fourth consecutive major tournament, but Murat Yakin has thoughtful plans for the remaining squads.
Breel Embolo and Captain Granit Xhaka are high on the list of potential squad members after achieving assured victories against teams like Spain, the Czech Republic, and Portugal. Yann Sommer, the shot-stopper, would be ready against Cameroon after suffering an ankle injury in October, as he played against Ghana during warm-ups.
Contrarily, Cameroon has a wide selection of fit players to choose from; their attacking position would be managed by Brentford toward Bryan Mbuemo, while Anguissa will be a Magnificats in a midfield position, and Andre Onana from Inter Milan provides quality with gloves.
Nevertheless, Eric Maxim and Toko Ekambi are the streamlined attackers of Cameroon. With around 10 goals and three assists in the last ten matches, Maxim would have a real belief in turning around the cards as Saudi did over Argentina.
Switzerland possible starting lineup:
Sommer; Rodriguez, Akanji, Elvedi, Widmer; Xhaka, Freuler; Shaqiri, Sow, Vargas; Embolo
Cameroon possible starting lineup:
Onana; Tolo, Castelletto, Nkoulou, Fai; Toko Ekambi, Hongla, Anguissa, Mbeumo; Aboubakar, Choupo-Moting
