Slovenia vs Switzerland prediction: teams form analysis, possible lineups on November 13, 2026
Slovenia and Switzerland will meet on November 13, 2026, in the 5th round of UEFA Nations League League B. The visitors will be heading there in search of nothing less than a win.
Slovenia vs Switzerland: team news and expert analysis
Slovenia played at Euro 2024 and even reached the knockout stage. But they then endured a disastrous qualifying campaign last year and came close to dropping into League C of the current competition. That said, they looked decent in the autumn: they took four points from a possible six against Scotland and beat North Macedonia at home. They did, however, lose to the favourites.
Switzerland reached the World Cup quarter-finals in the summer, losing 2-1 to Spain only after conceding an 88th-minute goal. And despite the scandalous suspensions of Xhaka and Embolo, who were caught using fake vaccination certificates, they produced a perfect record in the autumn, conceding just once in four matches.
The hosts’ record is almost evenly balanced: they are currently scoring 1.1 goals per game and conceding 1.2. The World Cup quarter-finalists average 2.1 goals scored and far fewer conceded, at 0.7.
Previous matches: Slovenia vs Switzerland
The visitors have won seven of the last nine head-to-head meetings, suffering just one defeat.
