UNCOVERED: Socceroos face final european test ahead of world cup | History Defined

The Socceroos will conclude their preparations for the World Cup in North America with a warm-up examination against Switzerland, the first time they'll have faced European opposition since 2023.

Tony Popovic's side will take on the world No.19-ranked Swiss in San Diego, USA, on Saturday, June 6 (Sunday, June 7 AEST), their last outing before facing another European side Turkey in their World Cup group D opener a week later in Vancouver, Canada.

The Swiss, who've qualified for a sixth-straight time and have four times reached the round-of-16 in the last five editions, are much fancied to ease through what looks the weakest World Cup pool.
