Slovenia to host Switzerland at Ljudski vrt in fifth UEFA Nations League group game on Nov 13

Slovenia and Switzerland meet at Ljudski vrt Stadium on November 13 (BST) in the fifth group-stage match of the UEFA Nations League 2026-27. Slovenia arrive off a 2-1 victory over Scotland, while Switzerland have won each of their first four group matches.

Slovenia have recorded two wins from their opening four fixtures and sit second in Group E under coach Boštjan Cesar, with home advantage for this fixture. Switzerland, coached by Murat Yakin, have already beaten Slovenia once in the group and arrive having secured consecutive wins in their first four games. The Swiss side have conceded only one goal across that run.

Aljosa Matko has contributed two goals in four UEFA Nations League appearances for Slovenia and scored one of the goals in the 2-1 win against Scotland; the report notes he is 25 years old and can create plays. Switzerland’s attacking focal point will be Zeki Amdouni, who has scored three goals and provided an assist in four Nations League appearances and is expected to lead the visitors’ forward line.

The Swiss defence’s recent form is highlighted by the single goal conceded in the competition so far, and the report describes Switzerland’s backline and attack as performing consistently. Switzerland travel to Slovenia aiming to extend their winning run, while the hosts must minimise errors at Ljudski vrt to challenge the visitors.

Squad availability differs between the teams: Slovenia are described as having all squad members ready and fit for action, while Granit Xhaka has withdrawn from the Switzerland squad with a calf issue. The article lists the planned lineups as follows — Slovenia: Oblak (GK); Karnicnik, Brekalo, Bijol, Urbancic, Janza; Matko, Zabukovnik, Cerin, Sturm; Viptonic. Switzerland: Kobel (GK); Britschgi, Elvedi, Akanji, Rodriguez; Zakaria, Freuler; Sow, Manzambi, Ndoye; Amdouni.
