Switzerland to Win

The Swiss enter into the fixture on the back of a walkover over Ukraine, which brought an end to their seven-match winless run. On the other hand, Bulgaria's own seven-match winless run in competitive games continues. More worrying is the form of the hosts at home which has seen the Lions win only two of their last 12 games. The smart money is on the Swiss to deliver, who have not lost a competitive qualifying game to teams ranked below them since 2005.

Total Goals: Under 2.5

Both sides are out of form and desperately lack the confidence to score. The Swiss have their talismans Xherdan Shaqiri and Granit Xhaka on the sidelines for their respective clubs. On the other hand, Bulgaria remains a team in transition, relying on ageing Lokomotiv Plovdiv forward Dimitar Iliev for their goalscoring inspiration. Moreover, three of their last five H2H meetings have also seen under 2.5 goals being scored.

Both teams to score – No

The Lions have only scored six goals on home soil in their last eight fixtures. They will come up against the Swiss, who have managed 11 from their last five, with six of those coming against lowly Gibraltar. Vladimir Petković and Yasen Petrov have a tough task on their hands as the 2022 World Cup qualifying begins.

Bulgaria vs Switzerland: Team News and Match Preview

Bulgaria

The hosts are out of form and out of touch. They have not qualified for the FIFA World Cup since 1998 and are desperate to start their qualifying campaign on a bright start. However, recent history is against them as Yasen Petrov tries to shake up things. Confidence is low in the squad to trouble the scorers as not a single player called up has more than two goals to his name.

Switzerland

In contrast to their rivals, the A-Team is in better shape. They gave Spain and Germany a scare during their UEFA Nations League meetings and will hope that form continues to their 2022 World Cup qualifying. Vladimir Petkovic is in a better position as compared to his rival in the dugout, with five players hitting the back of the net for the Swiss ten times or more.
