Confirmed Lineups: Switzerland vs. Germany

Germany traveled to Basel for their friendly game against Switzerland. Both teams are through to the summer’s World Cup by topping their respective qualifying groups in the last international break.

As the 38-year-old coach announced in yesterday’s press conference, Kai Havertz starts on his long-awaited return to the side. Angelo Stiller and Leon Goretzka are partnered in midfield due to the absences of Aleksandar Pavlovic and Felix Nmecha as the captain, Joshua Kimmich, continues to play in the right-back position.
