Out of their last five World Cup finals appearances, Switzerland have got out of their group four times only to exit in the Round of 16.
A memorable run to the Euro 2020 quarter-finals, which saw them eliminate World Cup holders France on penalties, cemented a place in the hearts of football neutrals.
The "Nati" won't be led by Vladimir Petkovic though, who vacated his post after seven years in charge.
Murat Yakin, who earned 49 caps for Switzerland, took over the reins midway through the qualifying process in August 2021 and has hardly broken a sweat.
Under his tutelage, Switzerland remained undefeated in the campaign and even relegated European champions Italy to a playoff spot.

Having reached the quarter-finals of the 2020 Euro Championships after knocking out World Cup holders France in the last 16 showed what the team has to offer at this year's World Cup. And they have got their star performers in Granit Xhaka and Xherdan Shaqiri fit and raring to go. With Haris Seferovic once again leading the line, teams would do well to not take the Swiss lightly.
