Led by the incredible Lionel Messi, Argentina are clear favourites ahead of this encounter. However, coach Sabella will need his other players to step up in support of their captain.
So far, in the group stages, Messi has been the sole redeemer of the Albiceleste with his crucial goals against Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iran and Nigeria. The public is looking forward to yet another La Pulga show against Switzerland but the latter are ready to shock the world.
Losing 5-2 to France on Matchday 2 was a blessing in disguise for the Swiss. It helped them get back on track against Honduras. The man to watch is Shaqiri.
After netting a sensational hat-trick against Los Catrachos, could the Bayern Munich star eclipse Barcelona's number 10 icon, Lionel Messi? Both players head the starting line-ups of their respective team.
Argentina's First XI: Romero; Zabaleta, Fernández, Garay, Rojo; Gago, Mascherano; di María, Lavezzi, Messi (c), Higuaín.
Switzerland's First XI: Benaglio; Lichtsteiner, Rodriguez, Schar, Djourou; Inler, Xhaka, Behrami, Shaqiri; Mehmedi, Drmic.
