Switzerland vs Canada official lineups, Wednesday, 24 June 2026, World Cup Group B

Switzerland vs Canada official lineups, Wednesday, 24 June 2026, World Cup Group B

Here are the official starting lineups for Switzerland and Canada for the FIFA World Cup Group B match. The match is set to take place on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, at BC Place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Interestingly, both teams come into this match with the same number of points. This highly anticipated clash highlights two different styles of play, with Switzerland favoring a controlled, possession-based strategy, while Canada relies on quick counter-attacks.

Canada will be without their creative midfielder Ismaël Koné from Sassuolo, who unfortunately broke his leg in the last match. On the other hand, Switzerland comes into the game with a mostly fit squad, with only Miro Muheim listed as a doubt.

What’s on the line? The winner will claim the top spot in the group, while a draw could see Canada finish first and Switzerland second.

Canada’s offensive lineup includes the sharp Juventus striker Jonathan David and the dynamic Alphonso Davies, whereas Switzerland leans on a seasoned core and a solid defensive setup.

Head-to-Head: The two nations have faced each other just once before, with Canada winning 3-1 in a friendly back in May 2002.

FIFA Rankings

Switzerland is currently ranked 19th, while Canada holds the 30th position.
