Sweden – Poland : Preview & Prediction
It is a capital match for this final meeting of Pool E of Euro 2020. Yet attractive on paper, Poland is far from playing the leading roles since the start of the competition. Paulo Sousa’s men totally missed their entry into contention against Slovakia. Favorite, the Polish selection fell from the top by bowing, after the expulsion of Grzegorz Krychowiak (2-1). A defeat that could clearly have complicated the task of Robert Lewandowski’s teammates. However, they were able to revive on the second day against Spain. Despite Alvaro Morata’s opener, the Polish star striker tied the score in the second half. A draw (1-1) which therefore allows the Poles to remain in the race for the knockout stages of Euro 2020.
For the moment, Poland is in last place in Pool E. However, it is only three lengths behind Sweden’s first place. And that’s good since Poland finds the latter for its last meeting in this group stage. By winning in this meeting, Poland would come back to the height of its opponent of the day. Depending on the outcome of the other match between Slovakia and Spain, the Polish side could qualify by winning in this match. Paulo Sousa’s men should therefore land in full confidence for a meeting which will take place on the side of St. Petersburg and play the blow to the max. Still led by Robert Lewandowski, Poland can have very big ambitions.
However, it will be necessary to raise its level of play against Sweden. His opponent of the day is at the top of this group. To start in the competition, the team of Janne Andersson also managed to hang Spain (0-0). She subsequently won against Slovakia. The Swedish players were able to take advantage of a penalty scored by Emil Forsberg fifteen minutes from the end of the match, to offer themselves a precious victory in the race to the round of 16 (1-0). Far from being transcendent in the game, Sweden remains in a good position to qualify for the future. However, it could fall against a Polish team more motivated than ever in this last meeting of the group stage.
Especially since with its four points, Sweden could also be part of the best third, in case of defeat. And on paper, it’s hard not to give Poland an advantage. In addition to Robert Lewandowski, Paulo Sousa can count on Piotr Zielinski or Wojciech Szczescny! A high quality workforce that has enough to overcome its opponent of the day. Having been able to regain a little confidence by hanging Spain on its lawn, one has the impression that Poland will be able to afford the right to dream on this last day. Especially when we know that Sweden is far from being convincing in the game and could have a lot of trouble to shake up this beautiful Polish team.
