On Tuesday, Romania will face Switzerland in their final UEFA Euro 2024 qualification match at the National Arena.

Both teams have gone undefeated in the qualifiers thus far, helping them earn direct qualification into the main event. If the visitors win here, they will finish as the table toppers in Group I. The hosts only need to avoid defeat to keep their lead in the group.

On Saturday, the hosts defeated Israel 2-1 thanks to goals from George Pușcaș and Ianis Hagi. Valentin Mihăilă was sent off in the second half and will be suspended for this game.

Kosovo held the visitors to a 1-1 draw on Saturday. Ruben Vargas broke the deadlock in the 47th minute, but Muhamet Hyseni equalized in the 82nd.

Romania vs Switzerland Prediction

Tricolorii have gone unbeaten in the qualifiers so far, and they have kept three clean sheets in their last four games. They are unbeaten in three meetings against the visitors in the twenty-first century, though two games have ended in draws.

The only confirmed absentee for the hosts is Valentin Mihăilă, who will serve a one-match suspension. Edward Iordănescu is expected to use the same starting lineup as in the previous match as he attempts to finish the qualifiers unbeaten.

Nati have drawn five of their nine qualifier games so far. 
 

They have drawn three of their last four European qualifiers against the hosts, including a 2-2 draw in the reverse fixture.

Gregor Kobel left the training camp with a muscle injury and will miss this game. Otherwise, Murat Yakin has a fully fit squad and should be able to field a strong starting XI.

The visitors have never gone undefeated in a European qualification campaign, and now that they've qualified for the main event, they'll try to do so here. They are unbeaten in their last five qualifier away games and should be able to put in a strong performance.

Considering the current form of the two teams and recent history, we expect the two teams to settle for a draw.

Prediction: Romania 1-1 Switzerland.
