Round of 16: Sweden v Switzerland

Duration: 2 hours, 40 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One Scotland HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Wales

Gary Lineker hosts live coverage of the round-of-16 game in St Petersburg between Sweden and Switzerland, as both look to book their place in the quarter-finals.

The Swedes finished top of Group F thanks to a 3-0 win against Mexico. The Scandinavians have consistently punched above their weight in the last few years and beat both France and Italy in their qualification campaign.

Switzerland have not reached the quarter-finals since doing so on home soil in 1954 but will be quietly confident of reaching the last eight. They are unbeaten so far in Russia and held Brazil to a draw in their opening game, before claiming a crucial victory against Serbia thanks to a late winner from star man Xherdan Shaqiri.

Commentary is by Simon Brotherton and Mark Lawrenson. Show less
