One of the fixtures in the second round of the UEFA Nations League will take place on Sunday in Solna, where Sweden will host Estonia at the Strawberry Arena. Here is the expert forecast from Dailysports.
Sweden
Sweden is currently enduring a challenging period. The team that halted Italy's progress to the World Cup in 2018 and reached the quarter-finals of the tournament has now missed two major competitions consecutively. In the 2022 World Cup, Sweden was eliminated in the playoffs, and their Euro 2024 qualification campaign saw them secure only three victories from eight matches.
Yon-Dahl Thomasson, renowned for his successful tenure with Malmö, has been tasked with turning things around. Results under his guidance have been disappointing so far: Sweden has only managed a victory against Albania in recent friendlies, while suffering defeats to Portugal (2-5), Denmark (1-2), and Serbia (0-3). In the first round of the Nations League, Sweden secured a 3-1 away victory against Azerbaijan.
Estonia
Estonia struggled during the Euro 2024 qualifiers, finishing last in their group with Belgium, Austria, Sweden, and Azerbaijan, and only managing one point. However, their performances in the Nations League earned them a playoff spot for Euro 2024, where they were heavily defeated by Poland with a score of 1-5.
Despite this, Thomas Häberli retained his position. In friendly matches this spring, Estonia lost to Finland (1-2) and suffered a heavy defeat to Switzerland (0-4) in the summer. On the other hand, the team showed promising form in the Baltic Cup, defeating the Faroe Islands (4-1) in the semi-final and Lithuania in a penalty shootout in the final. In the first round of the Nations League, Estonia lost 0-1 at home to Slovakia.
