a further look ( FIFA site )....

during the qualifying competition

A total of 23 players shall be named on the start list (11 players and 12
substitutes). The 11 first-named players must start the match, and the other
12 are designated as substitutes. The numbers on the players’ shirts mustcorrespond with the numbers indicated on the start list (numbers 1-23 only).
All goalkeepers and the captain must be identified as such. Three players must
be goalkeepers, with the number 1 shirt reserved for one of them.

so in qatar i would assume the same rules apply so on match day 23 players are named and three must be goal keepers .. so Switzerland must leave one keeper out of the 23 on match day
