Germany goes for a third straight win in Group A against a Switzerland team that also is unbeaten. Germany have advanced to the knockout stage, and Switzerland is sure to confirm its place Sunday.

Both teams impressed in their openers: Germany routed Scotland 5-1 and Switzerland beat Hungary 3-1. Germany sustained their form by beating Hungary 2-0, the Swiss less so in a 1-1 draw with Scotland.

­Germany have already reached the round of 16 and with just a draw will finish top of Group A. That would send Germany to Dortmund for a knockout game against the runner-up of Group C, which is currently Denmark. Switzerland will top the group if they win. That would send Germany to play the runner-up in Group B.
