Sturridge who played 89 minutes against Norway in a friendly game at Wembley stadium on Wednesday might miss this clash according to several reports.
While the Mirror reported that the Englishman is suffering with a minor knock in his thigh and is expected to be back in action before Monday’s fixture.
If the 24-year-old failed to recover before the game then England boss Roy Hodgson will consider giving Sturridge's clubmate Rickie Lambert or Arsenal new signing Danny Welbeck a chance along with skipper Wayne Rooney.
Meanwhile, West Brom goalkeeper Ben Foster and Newcastle United’s Jack Colback both are out with injury problems. 19 man were present on today’s training.
While on the other side, Chelsea center-back Gary Cahill is confident that beating Switzerland will be a good achievement as it’s the most important fixture of the group.
Cahill said: “Switzerland will be confident, but it is a great opportunity to bounce back from a disappointing summer (World Cup).”
The rest teams are Slovenia, Estonia, Lithuania and San Marino which are easy as compared to Switzerland.
