Coach quotes
Vladimir Petković, Switzerland
We're not really thinking too much about our 5-2 defeat by France at the World Cup two years ago. We're certainly not looking for revenge. We're focusing on the present – that's all that counts.

We want to show France that we can play football just as well as them. Yes, we might get a couple of opportunities from set pieces which we can take advantage of, but we also want to show them that we can play football.

I don't think France are 100% calm either. They can still lose first place to us and we are going to do everything to achieve this against the favourites in our group. Maybe the favourites for the European Championship.

• Player Barometer: Payet still on top

Didier Deschamps, France
I could rotate things. All my players are available, but there are a number of different criteria to consider. I have to pick a team to make sure we secure top spot. That's our aim.

We should have more freedom against Switzerland due to their style of play. Playing against an ultra-defensive side is very difficult. Switzerland have a team that like to play football so it might be an open game.

Dimitri Payet has worked very hard and he's been rewarded. There are certain players who make a difference, but beyond the individual aspect it is the squad and their mindset that is crucial. It's quite nice what's happening to Payet at the moment – he deserves it.

This game has been billed as the 'Group A final' in the Swiss media, with the Nati still needing one more point to guarantee their place in the knockout stage. Do not expect Petković to park the proverbial bus at the Stade Pierre Mauroy, however – on the contrary, the 52-year-old has urged his players to "end the group stage in style" by beating the tournament hosts on Sunday.

David Crossan, France (@UEFAcomDavidC)
I back Deschamps's reshuffled France side to obtain the result they require to top the section. Playing 4-3-3 from the start will help Les Bleus. Those coming in have bags of international experience, while the recalled Paul Pogba and Antoine Griezmann will be itching to prove themselves. André-Pierre Gignac was a handful off the bench against Albania and scored on his last start against Russia in March, while an improving defence will bid for a third clean sheet in four outings.
