Argentina vs Switzerland lineups
Starting XI
Substitutes
Manager
- L. Scaloni
- M. Yakin
Argentina head into the quarter-final with a clean bill of health across their 26-man squad. Lionel Scaloni has no injury or suspension concerns to manage, leaving him with a full complement of options as he weighs his attacking selection.
Switzerland face a more uncertain picture. Johan Manzambi, who has scored three times in the tournament, is a doubt after missing the round of 16 with a knee injury. Michel Aebischer and Luca Jaquez remain sidelined, training individually. No probable lineup has been confirmed for either side, and further updates will be added closer to kick-off.
