North Macedonia host Switzerland in the UEFA Nations League, and both teams want to start the new round with a good result, but the two sides are in very different shape. North Macedonia had a very difficult spell in their recent matches, especially losing by 2 goals or more in 3 of their last 5, and they have not won any of their last 5. Their defence is a clear problem, while Switzerland are unbeaten in 5 consecutive matches, after coming through the FIFA World Cup with 3 wins and 2 draws and closing it out with a 1-1 draw in their latest match. Switzerland averaged 56.2% possession in their last 10 matches, higher than North Macedonia at around 46.1%, and they are likely to control the tempo more. If North Macedonia sit deep and wait to counter, the game could drag on, but if Switzerland take the lead first, they should keep attacking and close it out in line with their superior form.
