Manuel Akanji (28), defender

“My ideal opponents are Germany, the Netherlands and Austria. Playing against the hosts would be very special. And we haven’t played against the Netherlands and Austria in a tournament for a while.”

Yann Sommer (34), goalkeeper

“My ideal opponents are England, Albania and Slovenia.”

Nico Elvedi (27), defender

“My ideal opponents are Germany, Romania and Slovakia. There are many well-known faces from the Bundesliga playing in the German national team, revenge against Romania for the defeat in the European Championship qualifiers and Laszlo Benes, a good colleague of mine, plays for the Slovaks.”

Ricardo Rodriguez (31), defender

“My ideal opponents are Belgium, Romania and the Netherlands. We need revenge against Romania, we have good memories of Belgium and we haven’t played against the Netherlands for a long time.”

Gregor Kobel (25), goalkeeper

“My ideal opponents are Germany, the Netherlands and Turkey. We haven’t played against the Netherlands for over ten years, Turkey would be special because of the play-offs for the 2006 World Cup and the many fans in Germany. To complete the hammer group, Germany would be perfect.”

Fabian Schär (31), defender

“My ideal opponents are England, Romania and Slovakia. I play and live in England and know a lot of players. Revenge would be taken against Romania for the European Championship qualification and a good colleague of mine plays for Slovakia.

Djibril Sow (26), midfielder

“My ideal opponents are Belgium, Denmark and Scotland. We have had good experiences with Belgium in the past and the atmosphere in the stadium would certainly be great against the other opponents.”

Zeki Amdouni (22), striker

“My ideal opponents are Germany, Romania and Slovenia.”

Michel Aebischer (26), midfielder

“My ideal opponents are Germany, Romania and Scotland. It would be great to play the opening match in Munich against Germany. We know Romania from qualifying and we know we can beat them. And Scotland have a teammate, Lewis Ferguson, who plays for Bologna.”

Edimilson Fernandes (27), midfielder

“My ideal opponents are Portugal, Romania and Slovakia. We have a score to settle against the top two and our chances of points against Slovakia are good.”

Dan Ndoye (23), winger

“My ideal opponents are France, Albania and Slovenia. France is one of the best teams in history and Albania has a special bond with Switzerland.”

Yvon Mvogo (29), goalkeeper

“My ideal opponents are Spain, Hungary and Slovakia. Our chances of making progress would be good against these opponents.”

Ulisses Garcia (27), defender

“My ideal opponents are Germany, Romania and Slovenia.”

These are the groups that want Swiss sports celebrities

Jasmine Flury (30), ski racer

“Not only did I once play for FC Davos, but nowadays I also enjoy watching football on TV – especially when Switzerland is playing. I would like France from pot 1. Why? Because it’s just fun to watch Kylian Mbappé. I find Austria from Pot 2 exciting, matches against our neighbors are always explosive. And finally, I want Scotland: a team that always has extreme cohesion, like Iceland for example.”

Marco Odermatt (26), ski racer

“The Netherlands has a good team with great players, I am looking forward to a match against Switzerland. Then Albania, that would of course be very emotional. And from Pot 1 Germany, a match against the host would be perfect.”

Gino Caviezel (31), ski racer

“Because of Blick reporter Marcel W. Perren, a big Orange fan, I would like a match against the Netherlands. I’m taking Turkey out of pot 2, that would be an exciting match. Ultimately, I think a game against England would be wonderful.”

Justin Murisier (31), ski racer

“I would like to get Scotland out of pot 3. Then I would have a nice rivalry with Daniel Yule, who has Scottish roots. Austria would be good from pot 2 so that the rivalry continues on skis on the grass. Germany would be top in Pot 1. They lost to Austria, so we can easily win there.”

Michelle Heimberg (23), diver

“My biggest dream opponent would be France: Switzerland has good memories of the 2020 European Championship, when they won in the round of 16. So I would give the French a chance for revenge. Then I would think that Denmark would be great, because I am a big fan of the country. And finally I’ll take the Czech Republic because it would probably be a great match with a good chance of winning for Switzerland.”

Ancillo Canepa (70), FCZ chairman

“I would like a group with Belgium, Romania and Slovenia, in which progress would be more than possible.”

Blerim Dzemaili (37), former international

«My dream group consists of Switzerland, Germany, Austria and Croatia. These would be exciting matches against opponents who are just as good as Switzerland, so that our national team can surpass itself. Qualifying showed that we take smaller opponents lightly, putting us at high risk of being eliminated from the group. That must be avoided.”

Valon Behrami (38), former national player

“I would like Germany, Romania and Slovakia.”
