Sweden Preview – Can Sweden push on?
Sweden earned a solid and promising point in their opening match in Group E against Spain, holding the former World Cup winners to a 0-0 stalemate and giving the Swedes a decent platform from which to build from.
That solid result against Spain also extended Sweden’s unbeaten run in all competitions to six matches which includes notable wins against Georgia, Kosovo and Finland, and they’re also unbeaten in each of their last six European Championship qualifiers as well.
In addition, Sweden are unbeaten in each of their previous six meetings against Slovakia, winning three of these encounters and they look to have the measure of Slovakia again here as well.
Slovakia Preview – Can Slovakia frustrate Sweden?
Slovakia made the perfect start to their first ever Euro 2020 campaign by beating Poland 2-1 in the opening game of Group E which has placed Slovakia in a favourable position in terms of securing a possible top two finish in the group.
The victory over Poland extended Slovakia’s unbeaten run in all competitions to six matches which also includes a 2-1 win over Russia in the World Cup qualifiers, while four draws suggest that Slovakia may be hard to break down in this one.
However, Slovakia have won six of their last 18 matches overall and have picked up just four wins from their previous 18 matches away from home, so this may hold Slovakia back against Sweden.
