Switzerland vs. France 2016: Time, TV schedule and live stream

Hosts France take on Switzerland on Sunday, having already guaranteed their place in the next round.

Hosts France have yet to deliver a truly convincing performance at Euro 2016, though they've nevertheless guaranteed their safe passage into the knockouts with a group stage game still to spare. Coach Didier Deschamps is sure to make the most of the opportunity provided by their last match against Switzerland to iron out the flaws that Les Bleus have shown in their late victories over both Romania and Albania. There is, of course, also something of national pride at stake: France certainly won't want to lose against one of their neighbours.

Fortunately for France, Switzerland's cogs also don't appear to be turning as freely as coach Vladimir Petković would have wanted, despite his side amassing a solid four points from their opening two group games. They could only muster a 1-0 victory over Albania in their tournament opener before clawing their way back to draw against a very stubborn Romania courtesy of a sweet Admir Mehmedi volley. They're a good side, though for the time being they haven't shown their very best. They'll hope to do so and guarantee their place in the next round here.
