Switzerland vs Canada Prediction: Expect a productive game

The Swiss national team once again brought a very strong roster to the World Championship. Among the players who have agreed to play for the national team are Roman Josi, Jonas Siegenthaler, Nico Hischier, Kevin Fiala, Nino Niederreiter and others. Such an experienced and skilful gang, of course, shows great results at the group stage of the tournament. Another thing is that at the last two World Cups, the Crusaders took first place, and then both times they were eliminated in the quarter-finals. Despite this, the Red and White do not think to slow down, and continue to show excellent results at the 2024 World Cup, claiming the first place in Group A again.

Team Canada, on the other hand, often plays matches at the group stage of world championships without much spirit, which does not prevent them from reaching the final matches time and time again. Now the Maple Leafs are one of the main favourites for the 2024 World Cup, although they have played a couple of weak games in the first week of the tournament. In their opening game,they unexpectedly beat the Great Britain 4:2. They played an even weaker game against the Austrians, when after two periods they were 6:1 up, but in the third twenty minutes they conceded five unanswered pucks and went into overtime, where John Tavares still brought the victory - 7:6.

The Swiss and Canadian teams will definitely qualify for the playoffs at the 2024 World Cup, and in the face-to-face confrontation they will just try to figure out who got the higher seeding in the elimination games. The Crusaders should have more chances of success in this pairing, as they have a much more responsible attitude towards group stage matches at World Cups. In addition, the previous day they fought with the modest Danes, while the Maple Leafs spent a lot of energy and emotion in the battle with the Finns. The head-to-head statistics are also in favour of Patrick Fisher's charges, as they have won four of the last five meetings at the World Championships.
