With a 2-0 win over Hungary on Matchday 2, Germany moved to six points in Group A and secured a spot in the knockout stages of Euro 2024.

However, there's still something to play for in Frankfurt on Sunday - namely the top spot in Group A - when Julian Nagelsmann's side take on second-placed Switzerland, who have four points.

And as Nagelsmann made clear after the win over Hungary, he's not planning on making many changes.

"We want to win the group, that's the first goal. We want to get more rhythm. There won't be seven changes, I can rule that out," he said.

One possible change that's been suggested is Nico Schotterbeck coming into central defense, with both Antonio Ruediger and Jonathan Tah on yellow cards.

Maximilian Mittelstädt and Robert Andrich have also been booked, but despite the risk of getting players suspended Nagelsmann is leaning towards sticking with the same lineup that started the first two games, according to Bild.

Switzerland won their first game against Hungary 3-1 before drawing 1-1 with Scotland.

Swiss coach Murat Yakin is expected to name a largely unchanged side from the second game, but Breel Embolo could come into the starting line-up after providing a spark off the bench in both games so far.
