CanadaManager: Jesse MarschWorld Cup history: Third appearance. Best result – Group Stage 1986, 2022Three games at home give Canada a chance to progress to the World Cup knockout stage for the first time. The injury hanging over Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies is a concern. The left-back is captain and their greatest ever player, but Canada have held their own in recent friendly matches. Star man: Jonathan David. Should Davies struggle for fitness, David must pick up the mantle. The Juventus striker has struggled in Serie A this season, but has 39 goals in 75 appearances for the national team.Bosnia and HerzegovinaEdin Dzeko of Bosnia & Herzegovina is still causing problems for defenders at age 40.

Best result – Quarter-finals in 1934, 1938 and 1954Murat Yakin has gone for an experienced squad for the World Cup as Switzerland look to break the last-16 barrier. The Swiss have lost in that stage in four of their past five tournaments, failing to reach the quarter-finals since 1954. They have the playing talent to top this group, but losing again to an elite team in the early knockout stage would not be a surprise.Star man: Granit Xhaka.
