Match preview and statistics
Brazil has been one of the best teams in the World Cup so far with an impressive start in their opening game. The Selecao dominated and got a win against a tough Serbian team in their first game of this tournament. In a tough start to the game, Serbia defended so deep and prevented the runs of Vinicius as they were able to stop Neymar from dribbling past the defence.
Richarlison opened the scoreline in the 62nd minute as he pounced on a rebound after the goalkeeper saved a ball from Vinicius. The Brazilian doubled their lead in style as he scored a wonderful overhead kick to make it 2-0. Brazil kept on pushing for the third as they hit the woodwork twice during the game.
Brazil showed their amazing ability in the first game as they were able to utilise every area of the field to get a goal. The defence was so tight as they prevented Serbia from having a shot on target. Casemiro was the main man in the midfield as he won the ball back while dictating the play and dropping those long balls.
Neymar went out injured in the game against Serbia after he suffered the most fouls in a single game during the World Cup. He is out of the group-stage games and will be a big miss for the Selecao. Brazil has talents to replace the injured Neymar with Rodrygo, Martinelli and Jesus will be looking to get a start. Danilo will also be a big miss as he got injured in the game.
Brazil team news: Neymar is out with an ankle injury. Danilo is out with an ankle injury.
Switzerland got a 1-0 win over Cameroon in their opening game. Breel Embolo opened the scoreline in the 48th minute with a nice finish from close range. Switzerland created three big chances during the game but was only able to convert one.
Yann Sommer won the man of the match award after some impressive saves to deny Cameroon and keep the scoreline at 1-0. Switzerland had 1.44 expected goals with seven shots during the game.
Switzerland has been great against Brazil during the past meetings but will need a massive game to get something against this Brazilian team. They will have to defend so deep and stop the fast and pacey wingers of the Brazilian team

Predictions and betting tips
Brazil is the stronger side in this fixture and a win will be enough to secure them a spot in the knockout stages. The Selecao will be without a key player in Neymar but are still good enough to get a win. I predict Brazil to win 2-0.
Richarlison is the man on fire after two great goals against Serbia. The Tottenham Hotspurs forward got a top-class goal and one of the best goals ever in the World Cup as they secured all three points against Serbia. He will be looking to get goals against Switzerland as he eyes the Golden Boot. I predict Richarlison to score

Odds: 7.00 (+600 American; 6/1 Fractional)
