Sweden vs. Poland Tip & Quotes, 23.06.2021 – 18:00
On Wednesday evening, 23.06.2021 at 6 pm, the national teams from Sweden and Poland will meet on the third day of the European Championships Group E in the Gazprom Arena. The Tre Kronor have prevailed against Slovakia last Friday and lead the group with four points after two games. Last Saturday in Seville, the Bialo-Czerwoni took a point away from the Spaniards and saved the chance of finishing eighteen. With only one counter, however, Poland is last in the group. Slovakia is second (3 points) and top favourite Spain only third (2 points).

The national team of Janne Andersson did not play against Slovakia in the first round. The Slovaks had more possession of the ball, but they could not embarrass the opponent any more than the Tre Kronor. So an eventless first half ended with no worth mentioning. After the change of sides, much more was going on. After a few seconds Isak was prevented from scoring by the opponent (46th). Both teams played more determined forward and the Scandinavians in particular had good opportunities to lead – Augustinsson failed the Slovak Keeper after an hour. Then began the minutes of the strong Alexander Isak, who headed just past (67th) and then did not finish his good solo (71st). Shortly afterwards, the midfielder of San Sebastian took out a penalty, which Forsberg turned into 1-0 for the Tre Kronor (77th). In the final phase, the repertoire opposed the impending defeat. But only one shot of Kucka jumped out in the overtime (90th +5).
The Andersson elf plays a strong year in 2021 and even remained unbeaten in the opening match of the EURO against Spain (0:0). The three friendship games this year, including the European Championships against Armenia (3:1), were won. Sweden is also on track to qualify for the World Cup with two wins from two games. We are currently facing group victory at the European Championships and entry into the knockout phase. Even a draw is enough for the Tre Kronor to finish eighteen. The final round of the European Championships in France was even different in 2016. Without victory, the Scandinavians had to return home after the preliminary round – Ireland (1:1), Italy and Belgium (each 0:1).
Mattias Svanberg is also questionable for next Wednesday’s game against Poland (corona infection since 08.06.).

The white-reds had to do with Spain and with it the thickest chunk of the group. But Furia Roja struggled at first – Poland scored the first goal with Klich (6th). On the other hand, the first opportunity for the favourite was the 1-0 lead by Morata (25th). After a free kick chance by Gerard (34th), the national team of Paulo Sousa got into the game better – Swiderski gave up the equaliser (35th) from a short distance, then he failed from 20 meters on the post and Lewandowski slapped the replenishment in the arms of the Keeper (43rd). In the second period, the Poles again had the first chance and then used it by Robert Lewandowski to equalise 1:1 (54th). Five minutes later, the Iberians had the big chance to take the lead again – Gerard hit the penalty only at the post (59th). Spain was chosen to exert more pressure against the backdrop of Seville, but it was hardly necessary, as with Morata’s shot from an acute angle (65th). In the final period, the striker of Juventus Turin had the next good shot, again Poland’s goalie Szczesny was on the post (84th). It stayed 1:1.
The Sousa team scored the first point in the European Championships after the opening lap against Slovakia (1:2). Even before the start of the European Championship, it was clear that Poland is not yet in top form. The two test kicks against Russia and Iceland shortly before the EURO ended with a draw. In March of this year, the World Cup qualifying also ran on average with a victory, a bankruptcy and a score split.
THE EURO 2016 in France has so far been under a brighter star for the Bialo-Czerwoni with the entry into the quarter-finals. Five years ago it was only after penalty shootouts against the later European champion Portugal that the end came. Previously, Poland was able to beat Germany (0-0) and won victories against Northern Ireland and Ukraine (1-0 each) as well as Switzerland, which were defeated in the penalty shootout in the final of the eighteen.
Bavaria’s Robert Lewandowski was still under criticism after the opening defeat against Slovakia. After his first goal at the tournament against Spain, the striker saved a point and saved his country from being knocked out of the European Championships after only two games.

Sweden is to be favoured against Poland. The Tre Kronor play a very good tournament and only need one point to enter the eighth round of the European Championships. Even if you were defeated, you would probably move into the next round as one of the best four group thirds. The Scandinavians have not lost this year (six wins, one draw). The Bialo-Czerwoni surprisingly scored a point against Spain last, but this could have been too little on balance as the opening match against Slovakia was lost. The white-reds must win to reach the round of the last 16 teams. In any case, the Sousa elf has the stuff and the quality to score the three points, but we predict that Sweden is currently in too good shape and will at least not lose. In the end, you separate with a goal-rich draw in St. Petersburg.
