Switzerland vs. Algeria Prediction, Odds, Picks For World Cup Match

Published

Switzerland will face Algeria in a 2026 FIFA World Cup round of 32 showdown on Thursday, July 2, 2026, at BC Place Vancouver on FS1. 

Switzerland is one of four teams in the field to make the knockout stage in four consecutive World Cups. However, it is the only one of those four that did not win a knockout game in any of the three previous tournaments.

After drawing Qatar 1-1 and beating Bosnia and Herzegovina 4-1, Switzerland hung on to beat Canada 2-1 in the group finale to win Group B. Switzerland matched a team record with seven goals in the group stage, and the Swiss now have only one loss in its last 17 matches. 

Meanwhile, Algeria has reached the World Cup knockout stage for the second time in its nation's history. 

After losing 3-0 to Argentina on a Lionel Messi hat trick, Algeria's hopes of advancing seemed slim. Then, Algeria got its first-ever World Cup comeback win over Jordan (2-1), followed by a wild 3-3 draw vs Austria to advance as a third-place team. 

Let’s check out the odds for the Switzerland vs. Algeria matchup at FanDuel Sportsbook as of July 2.
