FIFA World Cup Betting Preview: Switzerland vs Bosnia-Herzegovina

Switzerland take on Bosnia-Herzegovina in this FIFA World Cup Group B encounter at Los Angeles Stadium (SoFi Stadium), with kick-off set for 15:00 on Thursday 18 June.

Los Angeles Stadium is an open-air venue where clear skies and a temperature of 24°C (75°F) are expected at kick-off.

There’s a case for backing Switzerland -1 at odds of -111, meaning money back if they beat Bosnia-Herzegovina by a single goal. A victory by two goals or more would land a nice return with this Asian Handicap wager.

Switzerland were held to a 1-1 draw by Qatar in their opening tournament fixture at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium. Murat Yakin's side controlled much of the contest, enjoying 68% possession and registering seven shots on target, with Breel Embolo scoring their only goal.

Bosnia-Herzegovina began the tournament with a 1-1 draw against Canada at Toronto Stadium. The Dragons spent much of the match on the back foot, seeing only 39% possession and registering three shots on target, although Jovo Lukic did find the net.

Head-to-Head Statistics

The only previous meeting between these sides came in a 2016 friendly, when Bosnia-Herzegovina recorded a 2-0 win over Switzerland at Letzigrund Stadion in Zürich.
