Switzerland and Belgium UEFA Euros Tournament Record
Switzerland, a regular participant in major international competitions, has yet to reach a final despite multiple quarter-final appearances. Recent UEFA European Championships have seen Switzerland as potential surprise packages.
Their progression from the group stage at Euro 2016 and Euro 2020 indicates the team's growing confidence. Their best ever performance came in Euro 2020, when Switzerland staged a remarkable comeback to eliminate World Cup holders France in the Round of 16. However, they were to face heartbreak in the quarter-finals, losing to Spain in a dramatic penalty shoot-out.
Belgium, a nation craving their first international trophy, has made their mark at the UEFA European Championships. Their most notable showing was at Euro 1980 when they reached the final but narrowly lost 2-1 to West Germany.
An era of underwhelming football was to follow, with Belgium making just one solitary appearance at the European Championships between 1988 and 2012. Despite high expectations at Euro 2016, the star-studded team fell short in the quarter-finals against Wales.
Switzerland vs Belgium Head to Head
The history between Belgium and Switzerland in major international tournaments is yet to be written. However, a thrilling encounter in the UEFA Nations League in 2018 showcased what kind of match we could have in store.
Thorgan Hazard's early brace gave the Red Devils a 2-0 lead within 17 minutes, but Switzerland, buoyed by home support, mounted a spectacular comeback to win 5-2, courtesy of a Haris Seferović hat-trick.
