France's journey toward establishing a dynasty enters the elimination rounds of Euro 2020 when Les Bleus head to Bucharest to face neighboring Switzerland. 

The 2018 World Cup champions prevailed in the group of death by finishing first with a win over Germany and draws with Hungary and Portugal. Their last match, a rematch of the Euro 2016 final with Portugal, lived up to expectations with an entertaining 2-2 draw that featured braces from Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema. 

Despite being favorites to win the tournament, a difficult route awaits the French in the lopsided part of the bracket. First comes a test against Switzerland, who finished third in Group A following its 3-1 win over Turkey in its final group game.

The victor will go on to the quarterfinals in St. Petersburg against the winner of Spain vs. Croatia.
