Serbia World Cup 2022 results, squad list, fixtures and latest odds
Serbia coach Dragan Stojkovic said it felt like two points lost after they let a 3-1 advantage slip against Cameroon in their second Group G game.
"At that stage we had absolute control of the match," Stojkovic said. "But we were not smart enough to see out the match. We created a lot of opportunities and scored three goals, but couldn't finish it off."
Stojkovic is confident his side can still progress. "In the dressing room we are calm. Yes, we regret the mistakes we made, but the players should not lose their heads over it. We seem to like to take the difficult road.
"We will do the best we can to play attacking football and try to win (against Switzerland)."

Who is their best player?
It has to be Mitrovic, Serbia's all-time top scorer. With 50 international goals to his name, Mitrovic has cultish support in his home country, having played for the national team since 2014. However, like most of his compatriots, he did not have the best game against Brazil, rating fairly low by Telegraph Sport readers. That said, as mentioned above, he was not fully fit.
