Even with the North Korean communication in which the Swiss team is enjoying itself, it is possible to get a scoop: Stephan Lichtsteiner will hold well in Copenhagen against Denmark.
Doubts for Fabian Schär
Lichtsteiner will thus hold the right flank in a device that should be a 3-5-2. The question mark lies in the condition of Fabian Schär who would suffer from a knee. Best defender of the Swiss team and striker in Dublin, Saint-Gallois is becoming more and more a true leader. Not being able to count on him at Parken Stadium would be a blow.
Before the proximity of Tuesday's match against Eire in Geneva, which has the same importance as Saturday, Petkovic may be led to play the precautionary principle for Fabian Schär. The same principle that could lead him to not "burn" Lichtsteiner with such a two-match sequence in three days.
If Schär was to give up, Ricardo Rodriguez slip in central defense alongside Nico Elvedi and Manuel Akanji to leave the left flank to Loris Benito. Denis Zakaria, Granit Xhaka and Remo Freuler will play in the middle of the game. In attack, Haris Seferovic will be, of course, tenured. On the other hand, there is undoubtedly a "match" between Brel Embolo and Admir Mehmedi.

The Swiss will not be at the party
"We will be selling in front of 36,000 spectators, for us this is the most important meeting since the World Cup in Russia – you have to win!" To hear the speech of the coach of Denmark, Switzerland will not be at the party Saturday. We have the good fortune to play against the best fans in the world, says Age Hareide, a technician from Norway. Switzerland is a great team, but we have to beat it. Denmark will host matches of Euro 2020. We have no right not to qualify. "
