Poland vs Sweden Prediction

• Where: Silesian Stadium, Chorzów, Poland
• When: Tuesday, March 29, 2022

Poland and Sweden meet in one highly interesting matchup, which will decide one more passenger to the World Cup in Qatar. Sweden had to go through a lot of trouble to eliminate the Czech Republic in the previous round, while on the other side, Poland didn’t play at all. They were automatically in the next stage because FIFA banned Russia from playing due to off-field matters. Expect to see one very fierce and rough battle between two strong and endurable teams.

Poland vs Sweden Preview

Poland

The Polish national team didn’t play its game against Russia, but they managed to find a rival and keep themselves in the competitive rhythm before this clash. Poland faced Scotland, which also didn’t play its game against Ukraine due to the situation in that country.

Eventually, we saw a draw, 1-1, with the Poles equalizing the score in the fourth minute of the injury time, when Krzystof Piatek netted from a penalty. Overall, this was the second draw for this unit in the past nine contests, with two losses and five victories.

This team utilized the home court advantage very well, but after the EURO, Poland won just two of four games at home, keeping one clean sheet.

Sweden

Blagult had to dig deep to eliminate the Czech Republic in the previous stage. They would advance after extra times, winning 1-0, with Robin Quiason scoring the only goal in the 110th minute.

Sweden plays dull and unattractive football, relying on defense and waiting to strike from the counterattacks. They have a few very pacey players up front, and apart from that, Blagult is also dangerous from the set pieces due to their powerful physique.

The previous four of their events ended with under 2.5 goals, while five in a row saw only one side netting. As said, Sweden’s focus is on defending, which is why we see such low-efficient affairs and results.

Poland vs Sweden Head to Head

The two sides met at the recent EURO in the last round of Group E contests. Sweden won 3-2, securing first place in the assembly and sending the Poles back home. Forsberg netted twice for Blagult, but Lewandowski responded to level the score. However, Claesson stunned the Poles in the fourth minute of injury time to earn his team a big win.

Poland vs Sweden Prediction

We don’t have the slightest doubt, that this event will be completely different than the one from the previous summer. The stakes here are high, meaning that both sides won’t rush into anything, so we expect to see defensive-minded approaches from both ends. It’s why we predict a low-efficient outcome, with two goals at most. Also, our suggestion is to stay away from picking the final result, as these units have the same quality, and the game could go either way.

Our verdict: Under 2.5 goals.
