While not the World Cup’s most glamorous fixture on paper, Qatar vs. Switzerland threatens to deliver more drama on Saturday.

The opening two days of the competition have yielded some fantastic performances, controversial decisions and frenzied celebrations, with Qatar and Switzerland aiming to write their own chapter early in the book.

Many are projecting a comfortable Swiss victory at Levi’s Stadium, Nati’s superior roster, tournament experience and FIFA ranking all pointing to a stylish opening win. Murat Yakin will not only demand all three points, but an emphatic triumph that boosts Switzerland’s goal difference.

Qatar is very much the underdog having been dumped out at the group stage as hosts of the last World Cup, Julen Lopetegui unable to save it from a wretched run of form ahead of this summer’s event. A miracle is needed to avoid defeat, let alone taste victory.

Here’s how audiences can tune into the battle in Santa Clara.
