Switzerland 2018 World Cup Odds: +5000
Switzerland is a longshot to win the 2018 World Cup at odds of +5000. They are not really a threat to win the title, but they could throw a scare into some teams and it is not out of the question that Switzerland could get out of the group stage and make the quarterfinals.
2018 World Cup Qualifying Results
Switzerland won nine of their ten group games but had to go to a playoff because Portugal finished first in their group.

Players to Watch
Switzerland has some players to keep an eye on including Granit Xhaba, Rodriguez and Xherdan Shaqiri who will be playing in his third World Cup. You can make a case that this is the best Switzerland team in decades. "We don't really set limits for us. It could be even to the final," said head coach Vladimir Petkovic.
The Coach
Vladimir Petkovic is the current coach for Switzerland. He led AC Bellinzona and he also spent time with Samsunspor and Lazio. He took over at Switzerland after Ottmar Hitzfeld left after the 2014 World Cup.
Switzerland World Cup History
Switzerland has played in 10 World Cups, in 1934, 1938, 1950, 1954, 1962, 1966, 1994, 2010 and 2014. They have made the quarterfinals three times but the last time was in 1954. The Round of 16 has been their best effort since. They were knocked out in the Round of 16 four years ago by Argentina. Switzerland has played 33 World Cup matches in their history and scored 45 goals for an average of 1.4 goals per game.
Switzerland 2018 World Cup Predictions
Switzerland is not without a chance to do some damage at the 2018 World Cup. They will probably be overlooked, but keep in mind that they only lost one game in qualifying and finishing behind Portugal is definitely not anything to be ashamed of. The Swiss are definitely capable of winning some games at the 2018 World Cup and getting out of the group stage. The team has not made it past the Round of 16 in a long time but the 2018 World Cup could where Switzerland makes it to the quarterfinals.
