Switzerland and Bosnia are both looking for their first World Cup win in Group B when they meet in Los Angeles.
Switzerland have reached the knockout rounds in each of the last three World Cups, though they have never gone beyond the last 16.
With their superior pedigree at this level, Switzerland will be hoping to kick-start their campaign with a win and will look to be much more clinical after finding the net just once from 26 shots against Qatar.
Bosnia-Herzegovina drew with co-hosts Canada in their opening game. Here’s how both sides line up.
