Switzerland and Cameroon kick off Group G action at the 2022 FIFA World Cup looking to step out of the shadow of pool rivals and tournament favorites, Brazil.
With tougher tests undoubtedly to come — thanks to a group that also contains an attack-minded Serbia — a win is likely to be vital to either side's hopes of advancing to the knockout stages.
Switzerland have reached the Round of 16 in their past two World Cup appearances, while Cameroon failed to qualify for Russia 2018 and last made it past the group stages in 1990.
After beating Portugal and Spain in the Nations League this year, the Swiss will know they can do some serious damage in Qatar if they live up to their potential, but Cameroon have the talent to also make a charge into the later stages.
Here’s everything you need to know to watch the match in the United States on TV or online via live stream.
