Germany - Costa Rica

I believe that Switzerland will be able to hold out, at least during the main game. In this tournament, they have conceded very few goals, and their defense seems to be one of the strongest among the remaining teams. Argentina is the favorite, but they have faced serious difficulties in the past when playing against opponents with strong defenses. My prediction is 1-1 or even 1-0 in favor of Switzerland.

Argentina has already jumped into difficult situations twice and the question is how much success they have left. The Swiss are a solid and often surprising team, which is not as weak as it is perceived. Twelve years ago, the Swiss did not lose in the knockout stage during regular time, so the score can confidently be repeated now. The Swiss are good at defending and scoring, and the Argentine team has never had such strength, so I believe the match will be tough.
