Switzerland needs to adwance in this one. If Fischer doensn't manage to pull of the win then I don't think he should be the coach going forward. The credit of 2018 is used up and we need a bigger success once again than losing in the first knockout game like so many times in the recent past.

This is such a tough call for me.
Swayman is the better goalie.
Josi is the best D but Seth Jones is amazing too.
Top Swiss forwards are better but overall forward depth might be US.
A very good quarter! Good luck to both... Both nations could use a medal at the world's!

2 is better than one
Big issue with this U.S. team is scoring. Goaltending has been very good with Swayman and the d has done its job. Someone is going to have to step up and puck in the net for the U.S. in order for them to win. Come on Gally!

Betting agencies got Switzerland as a quite big favorite. If USA would win, it would be an upset.
Nothing on that yet. I guess we'll see. Riat is a good option for the PP. He has a good shot and a scoring sense. Not sure about him beside Hischier and Meier.
Switzerland should be the slight favorite, roster wise it seems pretty equal, Switzerland has more eperience in that kind of situation.
Yeah i'm feeling you. I hope they channel their inner 2013 Julian Walker and slap the shit through USA's goalie.

me too man haha Hope we make a big big game.I'm already nervous about that one while watching the other games
The roster quality is certainly good engough to advance and in my opinion better than on the american side except for goaltending. But there are some things that make me worry. We have slept through the the first period of the last two games and have taken way to many unecessary penalties the whole tournament. In the knockout format this can easily mean the death blow for your team if you are not careful. In addition to that we often had trouble in high stakes games under Fischers tenure with the exception of 2018. And with Scherwey a significant part of the winner mentality of this team is missing now. Lets hope they can break the cycle anyway today.

Lineups available here:
Glauser back for Switzerland, Marti not dressed, Riat still on the first line. USA still with only 5 D-men.

Wow, I didn't expect Berra to start. And I still would have preferred to see Kurashev with Hischier.
