Switzerland vs. Serbia play tomorrow, AP via Fox runs this story, some comment on what I think could be the outcome after:
Switzerland, Serbia coaches don't want to talk about Kosovo
By MIKE CORDER | Associated Press
KALININGRAD, Russia – The coaches of Serbia and Switzerland only want to talk about football, not about an entrenched political dispute casting a shadow over their teams' World Cup showdown in Russia.
Tensions have been building in Serbia before the Group E match Friday in Kaliningrad. Not between Swiss and Serbian fans, but between Albanian and Serbian supporters.
That is because several players in the Swiss squad have Kosovo Albanian roots, including midfielder Xherdan Shaqiri who was born in Kosovo, the former Serbian province that declared independence in 2008. Serbia doesn't recognize Kosovo's independence and relations between the two countries remain tense.

This is group E:
https://us.soccerway.com/international/world/world-cup/2018-russia/group-stage/group-e/g8874/Tomorrow, early game Brazil vs. Costa Rica, if the Ticos (Costa Rica) lose tomorrow, they can go home basically.
But back to the late match, Switzerland vs. Serbia, Russia (Kalingrad) should be a home game to Serbia or close to it.
Standings right now:
1. Serbia 1 win, 3 points.
2. and 3. Brazil and Switzerland, 1 draw, 1 point.
4. Costa Rica, 1 loss, 0 points.
I think I will go with Serbia to win. Serbia seems to make most of the recent World Cups, well, they were at South Africa I believe. Should be close, 1-0. Switzerland appears to actually be a very good team.
Brazil should take care of Costa Rica but I'd love to see CR get a result.
Nigeria vs. Iceland, the middle game tomorrow, you've got to think Iceland has an edge. They just keep on going and going. That would eliminate Nigeria but who knows? Argentina losing really opens the door for the Super Eagles-Nigeria to redeem themselves. Iceland, if people do not know, the country of 400,000 people has put together a strong team.
