What TV channel is Switzerland vs Spain today? Kick-off time and how to watch Euro 2020 fixture

Spain are taking on Switzerland tonight in the quarter-finals of Euro 2020.

Both sides came through thrilling last-16 matches, with Spain seeing off Croatia in extra time and the Swiss enjoying that famous penalty shootout victory over world champions France.

The stakes are high in St Petersburg this evening with a place in the semi-finals at stake, where the winner would meet either Belgium or Italy in the last four at Wembley.

Here’s Ferran Torres, the Spain forward: “People said that Spain couldn’t score, but I never thought that. When you work hard, you get rewards. I don’t care who we play in the quarter-finals. We will go into any game believing that we depend on ourselves – driven by pride and ambition.”
