Gyokeres could once again be the decisive factor: prediction for Bosnia and Herzegovina — Sweden
Bosnia and Herzegovina have shown good form and looked particularly dangerous in attack against Romania. However, they now face the group leaders, who consistently create chances and score in every match.
Sweden have not looked flawless defensively so far, but their attacking potential appears stronger. If Gyokeres continues his scoring run, the visitors have every chance of taking all three points once again.
