Three days before the quarter-final against England, two important players are missing from Swiss training: Captain Granit Xhaka and Ruben Vargas are completing individual sessions.
Xhaka, who already missed training on Tuesday, is suffering from adductor problems. However, there is still no reason to doubt the 31-year-old's involvement against the English side, according to the national team officials.
The same applies to Vargas, who shone in the round of 16 against Italy with a goal and an assist. The fitness coaches, who control the players' workload individually, prescribed him further "recovery training".
The Swiss are still preparing for their clash with England on Thursday and Friday at the Waldau Stadium in Stuttgart. After the final training session, the team will fly to Düsseldorf, where the match for the European Championship semi-final will take place on Saturday (18:00).
