Netherlands had to come from behind to draw against Sweden and survived a scare against Portugal, but the Dutch can now win Group C if they at least match Sweden's result in the final round of fixtures before the knockouts.

In Switzerland, they face a side that gave up a 2-0 lead against Portugal and was subsequently narrowly beaten by Sweden in the same week as a stomach bug swept through the squad.

The Swiss are not out of it themselves, although they need to win here and hope that Portugal don't also beat Sweden. Given that a Portugal result is unlikely, there is big motivation to go for it here.
