Euro 2024: Chris Sutton’s quarter-final predictions
There are still plenty of areas where England need to get better. I hate their lack of balance on the left-hand side. Luke Shaw has not played a minute in this tournament yet, and that was a risk that manager Southgate has got badly wrong.
At the moment, there is not much point dwelling on that. It is all about getting through this game, and England can do it.
I still want to see Cole Palmer start on the right because he offers something different creatively and looks so at ease with himself, but it is pretty obvious that won’t happen.
We will see one change at the back because Marc Guehi is suspended, and Ezri Konsa will probably come in, which is fine, but that will be it.
I am not expecting England to do very much different from what we’ve seen so far.
England are a bits-and-pieces team and are not going to suddenly turn into a side like Spain who play some beautiful football, but they have so much talent that they should still have too much for the Swiss.
Sutton’s prediction: 1-0
