Switzerland manager Murat Yakin has quite the golden generation at his disposal which includes the likes of Borussia Dortmund's Gregor Kobel, Inter Milan's Yann Sommer and Monaco's Breel Embolo.
Ones to watch
Hungary captain Dominik Szoboszlai enjoyed an impressive campaign with Liverpool.
Szoboszlai, 23, joined the Reds last summer from RB Leipzig following a £60million deal.
The midfielder amassed a total of seven goals and four assists in 45 appearances in his maiden campaign at Anfield.
The Hungarian star has also registered 12 goals in 42 caps with his national team.
Switzerland captain Granit Xhaka also enjoyed a stunning debut campaign at Bayer Leverkusen whom he led to their first ever Bundesliga title.
Xhaka helped Leverkusen win their maiden domestic Double following an incredible undefeated run that saw Xabi Alonso's side only losing once in the Europa League final against Atalanta.
The midfielder registered four goals and two assist in 50 appearances this season.
This comes after the Arsenal hero's 14 goals in 125 caps with the Swiss team.
Head-to-Head
Hungary and Switzerland have faced off a total of 46 times across all competitions.
The Hungarians have won a majority of 30 games while the Swiss count 11 victories.
Switzerland have won all three of their most recent meetings as well as six of their last nine games, of which they only lost one.
This will be the first ever time the two countries face off in the Euros.
SunSport prediction
This really feels like the kind of game that could go either way as they two teams are quite evenly matched, therefore a draw might be the safest bet.
Prediction: 1-1
