    Honduras I want them to beat Switzerland, but I just do not see it happening, as Switzerland are too good of a European side to not concede any goals and especially against Honduras I do not see them losing to Honduras or even drawing with them.

    2-0 result as my prediction for this game, for the Swiss to beat Honduras

    I now see this match now being a 3-0 scoreline for Switzerland beating Honduras, seeing as how Switzerland are too superior a team for Honduras to handle, and Switzerland will be playing all defensive like how they did with Spain, and I am sure like how they will do with Chile, so I see Switzerland maybe winning this group now

    This will be an interesting match. Switzerland will conserve its defensive skills or will attack a technical inferior team like Honduras? Oh... I'm just posting and Chile made the goal!!!

    Behrami with his red card in the previous match will not play in this match.

    When was the last time Switzerland beat anyone 3-0, just curious.

    Now we still have live, but we need chile to beat Spain and us to win by two goals and we can still qualify. Odds of that happening, nil.

    i really hope honduras tries in this game to maintain the integrity of the tournament.

    there are already rumors flying around to the contrary. i'm not a conspiracy theorist normally, but i hope FIFA is paying close attention to this match.

    There is still a chance for Honduras to qualify, but its fans seem to have lost all hope. When you have not been present in a world cup for 28 years, hope is the last thing that you should lose. This scenario is not likely, but its possible. Chile 3 - Spain 0. Honduras 2 - Switzerland 0. You guys could qualify via goal difference. Now dont ask me what would happen to you if you qualify, but I am just saying dont lose hope.

    So much for Honduras...I hope they can at least get a point, and hopefully a goal.

    Honduras need a point of honour and its not impossible against Switzerland. They struggle when they are the ones that have to go out and take the initiative. Ask Lichtenstein.

    Agreed, plus they (the Swiss) have managed to create 3 goalscoring chances so far in this WC. Not saying it's impossible for them to score 2 or 3 but when they have not already, it makes for a "tall order".

    I'm reading on Marca (Spain's Newspaper) that Honduras will come out with two forwards...if that's the case and taking into consideration that today MUST be the last game Carlos Pavon and Amado Guevara play with the National team (Because of Age and it's time to move aside for the future) so there will be extra motivation (as if it's needed in the WC)...I think Honduras can show what got them here today. Good luck Catrachos.
