The Swiss have several talented youngsters coming through from the sides that won the Under-17 World Cup in 2007 and reached the final at the 2011 European Under-21 Championship.
Switzerland's perfectly-timed rise to become one of the seeded nations for the World Cup is founded on a resilient defence, with two central midfielders shielding the back four.
A record of nine clean sheets in Switzerland's last 15 matches - including in a 1-0 win over Brazil - is testament to the strength of their aforementioned defence.
