Switzerland to host Scotland at Kybunpark in Group E finale of UEFA Nations League on November 16

Switzerland will host Scotland at Kybunpark on November 16 in the sixth and final group-stage match of the UEFA Nations League 2026-27. The fixture concludes Group E's schedule and both teams enter off the back of contrasting recent results.

Switzerland remain unbeaten in this Nations League campaign and were held to a 0-0 draw by Slovenia in their most recent outing under Murat Yakin. Scotland arrive after a 2-1 victory over North Macedonia, but the Sébastien Pocognoli-led side have struggled for consistency and will aim to control the game from the start despite travelling away from home.

Dan Ndoye is highlighted as a key attacking presence for Switzerland; the report notes he has five goal contributions in five Nations League fixtures and has been used on the right flank, where he can both score and create opportunities. Yakin’s side will look for Ndoye to continue providing decisive contributions as they seek to maintain their unbeaten run.

John McGinn starred in Scotland’s win over North Macedonia, scoring both goals in the 2-1 result. The 32-year-old’s brace has taken him to outright third in the all-time top scorers chart for the Scotland Men's National Team, and he is expected to carry his recent form into the trip to Switzerland.

Squad availability concerns were reported for both teams: Johan Manzabi has been withdrawn from the Switzerland squad for fitness reasons and Winsley Boteli might also miss out due to a lack of fitness. Scotland are likely to be without Stephen Welsh because of a muscle injury.

Projected lineups as provided are: Switzerland — Kobel (GK); Athekame, Elvedi, Akanji, Britschgi; Freuler, Zakaria; Ndoye, Rieder, Aebischer; Embolo. Scotland — Gunn (GK); Porteous, Graham, Tierney; Gannon-Doak, Ferguson, Gilmour, Robertson; McGinn; Adams, McTominay.

Broadcast details listed include India: Sony Sports Network and SonyLIV; UK: BBC iPlayer (Scotland and Northern Ireland matches only); Switzerland: Play RSI – Sport in diretta, Play RTS – Sport-Livestreams, Play SRF – Sport-Livestreams, and DAZN; USA: FOX Sports, FuboTV, ViX.

The result at Kybunpark on November 16 will decide final positions in Group E: Switzerland are top of the group and have already secured promotion to Nations League A, while Scotland need a victory if they are to qualify for League A.
