Following on from the Nations League debacle in March the USMNT has now lost three-straight games, as a young and inexperienced side lost 2-1 to Turkiye in East Hartford, Connecticut on Saturday. Pochettino gave plenty of youngsters a chance to impress, and some like Jack McGlynn did, but he's missing several key players this summer for various reasons and there is real concern among the USMNT fanbase about where the team is heading. This friendly against Switzerland will give the USMNT a very good idea of how things are shaping up ahead of the Gold Cup this summer, and just 12 months before the 2026 World Cup where they are expected to flourish in front of their home fans.
Switzerland beat Mexico 4-2 in a friendly in Salt Lake City, Utah on Saturday with Murat Yakin's team looking as solid as ever. In Breel Embolo, Granit Xhaka, Yann Sommer and Manuel Akanji they have an experienced core and their run to the quarterfinals of the European championships last summer proved their quality. In many ways the USMNT should aim to replicate what Switzerland have created. Being tough to beat and relying on a solid, defensive base and then allowing talented attackers to flourish on the counter.

USMNT team news, focus
We should see Tyler Adams, Tim Ream, Matt Turner, Haji Wright and Brenden Aaronson all start as Pochettino rotates his lineup. The likes of McGlynn, Diego Luna and Malik Tillman impressed against Turkiye, but defensively the USMNT need to improve as they can't keep making sloppy mistakes at the back. Mark McKenzie could come in to start at center back, while Johnny Cardoso could be rested after a long season for Real Betis and ahead of his pending move to Atletico Madrid.

OUT: Christian Pulisic (requested), Yunus Musah (requested), Antonee Robinson (knee), Weston McKennie (Club World Cup duty), Tim Weah (Club World Cup duty), Zach Steffen (knee), DeJuan Jones (muscle), Sergino Dest (fitness)
Switzerland team news, focus
The Swiss will likely roll out Xhaka, Embolo and Akanji to start once again, while Bologna trio Dan Ndoye, Remo Freuler and Michel Aebischer are all players to keep a close eye on. Fabian Rieder is a rising star.
USMNT vs Switzerland prediction
This feels like the USMNT will have plenty of problems at the back again and Switzerland showed how clinical they could be against Mexico over the weekend. Expect another defeat for Pochettino's understrength side. USMNT 1-3 Switzerland.

2025 NFL odds: How will Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf mesh in Pittsburgh?
The QB-WR duo of Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf could be a match made in heaven for the Steelers this season. Rodgers recently landed in Pittsburgh on a one-year, $13.7-million deal after spending the past two seasons with the New York Jets (2023-24), following an 18-year run with the Green Bay Packers to start his career (2005-22). Now, the 41-year-old four-time NFL MVP joins the Steelers for his 21st season after a whirlwind offseason. The Seahawks traded Metcalf to the Steelers in March after he spent the first five years of his career in Seattle (2019-24). In Pittsburgh, he signed a five-year contract worth $150 million. So, how will Rodgers mesh with two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver? Let's check out Rodgers' and Metcalf's odds for the 2025 season at DraftKings Sportsbook, as of June 9. DK Metcalf to score 8+ receiving touchdowns in the regular season: +250 (bet $10 to win $35 total) DK Metcalf to have 1000+ receiving yards in the regular season: +115 (bet $10 to win $21.50 total) DK Metcalf to have 1500+ receiving yards in the regular season: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total) Aaron Rodgers to have 30+ passing touchdowns in the regular season: +425 (bet $10 to win $52.50 total) Aaron Rodgers to have 4000+ passing yards in the regular season: +400 (bet $10 to win $50 total) Steelers to score 1+ passing TD in every regular-season game (17 games): +1700 (bet $10 to win $180 total) Steelers to score 1+ rushing TD in every regular-season game (17 games): +3500 (bet $10 to win $360 total) Steelers to go undefeated in the regular season (17 games): +40000 (bet $10 to win $4,010 total) Although he missed the entire 2024 season with an Achilles injury, Rodgers was solid last season in New York, throwing for 3,897 yards and 28 touchdowns against 11 interceptions. The Jets got off to a 2-3 start before firing then-head coach Robert Saleh. Rodgers played better down the stretch, but New York finished 5-12 and missed the playoffs for the 14th straight year. That said, Rodgers became the fifth player in NFL history to throw 500 regular-season touchdown passes in the season finale. Pittsburgh is hoping Rodgers has enough left physically to go with a football IQ that remains elite. Elsewhere, the Steelers' organization is hoping that the addition of Metcalf, 27, will bring some stability and, hopefully, maturity to a wide receiver room that has lacked both as of late. The imposing 6-foot-4, 235-pound wideout has become one of the most dynamic and reliable receivers in the NFL. He has never finished with fewer than 900 receiving yards in a season, and the 48 touchdowns he caught over six seasons in Seattle are third on the franchise's career list. He tallied 6,324 receiving yards for the Seahawks over that span. Metcalf joins a wide receiver group that includes 12-year veteran Robert Woods and third-year player Calvin Austin III. "I'm a physical receiver, you know, big shout out to my pops," said Metcalf, whose father played guard and tackle for the Chicago Bears in the mid-2000s. "So he instilled that in me, and I just try to play the game a different way." Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Red Sox calling up top prospect Roman Anthony two days after 497-foot grand slam in minors
BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Red Sox are calling up top prospect Roman Anthony two days after the 21-year-old outfielder hit a 497-foot grand slam for Triple-A Worcester. Anthony will make his major league debut Monday night at home against Tampa Bay, batting fifth and playing right field, manager Alex Cora said. A second-round pick in the 2022 amateur draft, Anthony is batting .288 with 10 homers and 29 RBIs in 58 games this season. The second grand slam of the season for Anthony put Worchester ahead 9-4 in the eighth inning. He drove a 91.1 mph sinker from Carlos Romero deep over the right-center field wall, a drive that left his bat at 115.6 mph. Anthony hit the longest home run measured this year by Statcast, which this season tracks the major leagues, Triple-A and the Class A Florida State League. Since Statcast started tracking in the major leagues in 2015, only Nomar Mazara (505 feet in 2019), Giancarlo Stanton (504 feet in 2016), C.J. Cron (504 feet in 2022) and Christian Yelich (499 feet in 2022) have hit longer big league homers. ___ AP MLB:
