Is Argentina’s name on the World Cup trophy again?
Lionel Messi’s reigning champions have been pushed into 3-2 thrillers against Cape Verde and Egypt so far in the knockout rounds of the 2026 edition, digging themselves out of hole after hole in pursuit of retaining their crown.
It’s the reliable, meat and potatoes Switzerland side up next who have over-performed at this year's tournament, reaching the quarter-finals for the first time since 1954 thanks to wins over Algeria and Colombia.
They have yet to concede a goal in the knockouts, compared to the four that Argentina have shipped, so which way will this one go in Kansas City?
Let’s take a look at the best betting for this clash on Sunday morning:

Argentina vs Switzerland Tips
Here are our top three World Cup betting tips and the best free bets ahead of this game.
Tip 1: Granit Xhaka to be booked
Switzerland's captain fantastic is going to have his work cut out in the middle of the pitch on Sunday morning.
Argentina's matches so far this tournament have been high on emotion, speed and action — especially in midfield and transition — and it's likely Xhaka is going to be prodded and poked by the Argentinean protagonists.
He's been booked in four of his last eight matches for club and country, and twice already at this World Cup.
Tip 2: Exact goals - 5
You can guarantee that when Argentina is involved at this year's World Cup, it won't be boring.
Their five matches have yielded 19 goals so far, and despite the frugal nature of Switzerland we're expecting something similar in this quarter-final tie.
Argentina's best form of defence appears to be attack at the moment, so a 3-2, 4-1 or even 5-0 win doesn't seem… crazy?
Tip 3: Lionel Messi to score anytime, Lionel Messi Over 3.5 shots, Argentina Over 1.5 goals, Argentina match win
It's turning into the tournament of the superstar.
Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and Harry Kane are all slugging it out for the golden boot, and you'd be brave to back against Messi edging ever closer in a memorable display against Switzerland.
He has scored in every game at this World Cup so far and has peppered goalkeepers in every fixture — we're not backing against him to do the same against the Swiss in Kansas City.
