As part of the next match of the European Football Championship, the players of the national teams of Sweden and Slovakia will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in the face-to-face confrontation?
Sweden
The Swedish squad before this meeting has one point to its credit, being located on the second line in the E-quartet. Everything is "to blame" for the forced draw in the meeting with the Spanish national team. Despite the large number of scoring chances that the Spaniards had, the Swedes were able to play for a goalless draw. The team of Anderson managed to extend the winless streak, which is already 6 matches – 5 wins and a draw. Before the start of the European Championship, the Scandinavians were able to defeat Armenia (3: 1), Finland (2:0) and Estonia (1:0) in friendly matches. In addition, the team "tre krunur" had 2 wins in the qualifying round of the World Cup, where they were beaten by Kosovo and Georgia.
Slovakia
After the victory over the Polish squad, the Slovaks lead the group E with 3 points and a difference of 2:1. After the first round, the Slovak national team can be considered the favorite of their group. It was able to reach the play-offs in 2016, losing to Wales and drawing with England, as well as defeating the Russian national team. In the 1/8 final, the Slovaks lost to Germany with a score of 0:3. Thus, the nominal guests have only 1 defeat in 4 meetings of the European Championship. Well, if we talk about the last games, they do not lose for 6 matches, having 4 draws and 2 wins.
Statistics and figures:
- Sweden is the favorite of the game;
- The Swedes have a 6-match unbeaten streak;
- Slovakia has not lost 6 matches in a row;
- The last face-to-face meeting between the teams ended in a 1-1 draw;

Forecast
It seems that in this meeting, Sweden will be able to celebrate success. I would recommend making several bets on this game at once, including the goal of the Swedes in the first half and their overall victory in the opposition.
