Sweden vs Algeria prediction, H2H and probable lineups – June 10, 2025
The international friendly between Sweden and Algeria will take place on Tuesday in Solna at the Strawberry Arena. I suggest a bet on goals in this clash, with an attractive odds offer.
Match preview
The Swedish national team heads into this friendly with two convincing wins in their last three matches — a 2-0 victory over Hungary and a resounding 5-1 thrashing of Northern Ireland. Under Janne Andersson, the Swedes have sharpened their attacking play, averaging 2.33 goals per game in this recent friendly run. Especially at home, the Scandinavians look confident, pressing high and maintaining a relentless intensity.
Defensively, Sweden have also improved — conceding just two goals in three international friendlies. Despite lacking a clear standout leader, the team shows solid chemistry and reliability at the back. Against Algeria, the hosts will look to control the game and dictate the tempo from the outset.
Algeria, meanwhile, have showcased a vibrant attacking style this year — netting 16 goals in 6 matches across all competitions. In their most recent outing, the "Desert Foxes" confidently dispatched Rwanda (2-0), proving they've adapted well to the demands of the new coaching staff. Mohamed Amoura has emerged as a key figure up front — already with 5 goals and 3 assists in 2025.
It's worth noting that Algeria have lost only once in 2025, winning every other match. Their defense isn’t flawless, but in friendlies, they've held firm so far. The upcoming clash with a solid Swedish side promises to be a real test of their level and cohesion ahead of more serious official competitions.
Probable lineups
- Sweden: Olsen – Ekdal, Hien, Gudmundsson, Holm – Larsson, Saletros, Ayari – Sema, Nygren, Elanga
- Algeria: Benbout – Atal, Tougaï, Bensebaïni, Hadjam – Boudaoui, Bentaleb, Mahrez – Maza, Belaïli – Amoura.

Prediction
Both teams come into this match in strong form, and despite the friendly status, the coaches are unlikely to let their players ease up. Sweden will be favored thanks to home advantage, but Algeria can counter with sharp attacking play and Amoura's creativity. The outcome is unpredictable, but goals seem almost inevitable. Our pick: "Both teams to score" at odds of 1.79.
