Episode 4: Qatar v Switzerland

Summary

Qatar v Switzerland (Kick-off 8.00pm). Mark Pougatch presents coverage of the Group B match at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium in Santa Clara, USA. Qatar have earned outright qualification for a World Cup for the first time in their history, having made their only previous appearance at the tournament when they served as hosts four years ago. They'll hope to improve on that showing, when they lost all three of their group games against Netherlands, Senegal and Ecuador, scoring just one goal against the Senegalese in the process. The Swiss reached their sixth consecutive finals and 13th overall by topping a qualification group that contained Kosovo, Slovenia and Sweden, winning four and drawing two of their matches, while scoring 14 goals and conceding just two. There has only ever been one previous meeting between these nations, and Qatar will hope to replicate the outcome of that friendly in 2018, in which they claimed a 1-0 victory. With analysis from Gary Neville, Ian Wright and Duncan Ferguson, and commentary by Sam Matterface and Lee Dixon
