A Switzerland victory would mark their best major tournament run and guarantee an all-European semi-final lineup.
Argentina cruised through the group stage but faced two major scares in the knockout rounds.
They needed stoppage-time heroics and an own goal to beat Cape Verde in the last 32, avoiding a historic upset.
In the last 16, Argentina trailed Egypt 2-0 until the 79th minute before Lionel Messi sparked a dramatic ten-minute turnaround to win.

Switzerland reached the quarter-finals for the first time since 1954. The Group B winners defeated Algeria in the last 32 and advanced past Colombia on penalties.
Squad Condition and Injuries
Switzerland's veteran core has performed well in recent knockout tournaments.
Much of their offensive success came from 20-year-old forward Johan Manzambi, who recorded three goals and two assists in two games.
However, Manzambi missed the last 16 match and remains sidelined with a knee injury, a significant blow for the Swiss team.
