"Switzerland are a top class side, I think they showed that in the summer.

"But we also showed last month that we can compete with these teams when we are on it and there's no getting away from the fact that we have got to go there and win the game to have a chance.

"If we don't win the game it's going to be very very difficult and it's just about keeping it alive.

"Hopefully next month we are in a position where we have two home games where we have something still to play for."
