Over the last decade, the Swiss national team has come close to the elite of world hockey, but has never won a World Championship. Since 2013, the Red and White have made the playoffs almost every time, played in the final three times, but lost all three times.
At the 2024 World Cup, the Crusaders played superbly in the group stage, winning six in seven games, which was enough for second place in the group. In the playoffs they first passed the Germans - 3:1, then unexpectedly defeated the Canadians - 3:2, but in the final again failed, losing to the Czechs - 0:2.
Czech Republic: form and statistics
The Czech Republic has won the World Championship seven times in its history, but after the championship in 2010, the Lions' results went downhill. Since then, they have won bronze medals only three times and often failed to reach even the semi-finals, so there were serious concerns about their performance before the 2024 World Cup at home.
In reality, everything turned out perfectly. The team had a productive group stage, scoring 16 out of a possible 21 points in seven games, which was good enough for third place in the group. In the play-offs, the Czechs were stronger than the Americans 1:0, the Swedes 7:3, and in the final game they beat the Swiss 2:0 to win the gold medals.
Switzerland vs Czech Republic: head to head statistics
This season the rivals have met four times on the stages of the Euro Hockey Tour. Three times the Czechs won - 5:2, 2:0 and 3:0, once the Swiss succeeded - 5:2. In addition, the teams played in the 2024 World Cup final, when Radim Rulik's wards won 2:0.

Switzerland vs Czech Republic match prediction 9 May 2025
On the first match day of the 2025 World Cup we are expecting a meeting of the rivals who closed the 2024 World Cup. A year earlier, the Czechs snatched a 2-0 victory over the Swiss in the final match, winning the long-awaited championship. Now Radim Rulik's charges are once again seen as favourites. They have beaten the Crusaders in three of their four head-to-head meetings this season, and the Red and Whites will not be able to rely on Roman Josi, a key player for the Swiss. As a result, we can bet on the Czech national team to win the match.
We have already noted that a year earlier the Czechs beat the Swiss in the final - 2:0, but in the upcoming confrontation we can expect more solid goal activity from the rivals. This time they start the world championship with a face-to-face battle, so the price of error is much lower. In the last battle at the Eurotour stage, Patrick Fischer's wards won 5-3. Now the best option for the prediction is a total over 4.5 pucks, and the bet on Each team total over 1.5 pucks - Yes is worth a closer look.
Our main prediction: is Total Over 4.5 for a coefficient of 1.71 in the betway bookmaker.
Our betting tip on the match: is Team 2 To Win for a coefficient 1.69 in the 1xbet bookmaker.
Our final betting tip on the match: is Team 2 To Win for a coefficient of 1.74 in the bet365 bookmaker.
