What time is France v Switzerland Euro 2020 match on? Kick off time, live stream and latest team news
France and Switzerland clash in Bucharest for a mouthwatering Euro 2020 last-16 encounter.
France got the job done in the Euro 2020 group stages but they will hope to kick up a gear as their Euro 2020 fixtures enter the knockouts this week.
Les Bleus looked functional as opposed to frightening in their opening trio of games. Their only victory came against Germany in the opening clash.
France were held to a shock draw with Hungary, though they did spurn a number of chances to seize all three points in that one, while they closed out the group with a draw against now-eliminated Portugal.
Switzerland are up next and they will be determined to make the most of their third-place qualification spot in the Round of 16.
The Swiss are eyeing up the biggest result of the tournament so far but must perform better than their last brush with an elite team which ended in a 3-0 defeat to Italy in the group stages.

France v Switzerland team news
France: Lucas Digne is likely out of the tournament with a thigh injury, while left-back Lucas Hernandez has a knee issue. It means Adrien Rabiot may have to fill in once again.
Boss Didier Deschamps could make further changes to this XI, with right-back Jules Kounde not guaranteed a start. However, Mbappe, Griezmann and Benzema will likely start in the forward three once again.
Switzerland: There are no fresh injuries for the Swiss, who could remain the same as their last outing against Turkey.
Granit Xhaka and Remo Freuler are likely to remain in central midfield, with Shaqiri tasked with carrying the ball into dangerous positions.

Our prediction: France v Switzerland
France looked deadly against Portugal last time out and their midfield of Kante and Pogba is likely to prove too strong for Switzerland on Monday night.
Indeed, with the likes of Benzema and Mbappe capable of scoring from nowhere, the general consensus is that Les Bleus will cruise to a win here and book their place in the quarter-finals.
Switzerland could pose a threat but the temptation to remain deep may hinder them. Shaqiri must ensure his set pieces are perfectly placed if the Swiss are to stand any chance of winning this one.
Our prediction: France 2-0 Switzerland (6/1 at bet365)
