Slovenia - Switzerland

Slovenia and Switzerland meet at Stozice Stadium, Ljubljana, on 13 November 2026 for matchday 5 of the UEFA Nations League. Slovenia arrive following a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Scotland, a result that built on their earlier 2-0 success against North Macedonia. Meanwhile, Switzerland enter the contest in dominant form, having recently dismantled North Macedonia 3-0 to maintain their momentum in the group. Both sides are navigating significant personnel challenges, with Slovenia missing the suspended Erik Janza, while Switzerland must manage without the injured pair of Ricardo Rodriguez and Granit Xhaka.

This encounter serves as a rematch of the 3 October 2026 fixture, where Switzerland edged past Slovenia with a 2-1 win. With Jan Oblak expected to anchor the Slovenian defense and Gregor Kobel standing firm for the visitors, the tactical battle in midfield will be pivotal. As the group nears its conclusion, both teams look to assert their authority in this high-stakes meeting.
