The personal meetings between Switzerland and Israel hold a special place in the prediction. Throughout their history, they have met four times, and all four times there was no winner determined.
Switzerland
The Swiss national team usually performs well in such qualifying stages and consistently defeats opponents who are inferior in class, albeit not by a large margin. However, they were unable to succeed at the World Cup in Qatar, having been defeated in the round of 16 by a highly motivated Portugal (1:6). The Swiss started the current qualification campaign in style, destroying Belarus 5-0.

Israel
The Israeli national team did not perform very successfully in the previous qualification cycle for the World Cup, and also regularly conceded in the Nations League. On the other hand, excellent attacking performance (an average of two goals per match) and the disqualification of the Russian national team allowed them to win their group and advance to the elite division. Quite unexpectedly, the Israelis recently dropped points against Kosovo (1:1).

Prediction
Our expert pick:
Our opinion is that the bet in this match should be made in favor of the home team. Switzerland usually doesn't make mistakes against opponents of this level and has an advantage in class, so at least a return can be played. With a high probability, the hosts will achieve victory, even if it's by just one goal. In addition, the Israelis were greatly disappointed in their game against Kosovo, which made their task more difficult. Our prediction is the Asian handicap (-1) on Switzerland at 1.60 odds in 1xBet. We assume that this time we should also consider the option of a high total score. Israel regularly concedes goals, which skilled high-level players can take advantage of. In turn, they have also been scoring in almost every match, so there could be a lot of goals. We take the total goals over 2.5 at odds of 1.68. Place a bet with
