Estonia and Sweden will face off in the MatchDay 5 of the UEFA European Championship Qualifying.
Estonia would consider it a letdown if they couldn’t find the back of the net against Sweden, although they might end up conceding more goals than they score.
Estonia is seeking a better outcome in this match following a 0-3 loss to Belgium in their previous Euro – Qualifiers fixture.
It has been unusual in recent games for Estonia to maintain a solid defense for the full 90 minutes. In fact, Estonia has allowed opponents to score in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding a total of 8 goals. However, it’s important to note that this trend may not necessarily continue into the upcoming game.
Estonia’s manager, Thomas Häberli, will be pleased to have a fully fit squad to choose from, as there are no fitness concerns ahead of this match.
Last 5 Games: Won: 1, Draw: 1, Lost: 3, Scored: 3, Conceded: 7, Clean Sheets: 1.
After a recent loss to Austria in the Euro – Qualifiers, Sweden is eager to bounce back in this game.
Demonstrating their penchant for exciting matches, Sweden has witnessed 20 goals in their last six matches, resulting in an average of 3.33 goals per game. Their opponents managed to score 7 of these goals.
Sweden’s manager, Janne Andersson, can breathe a sigh of relief as he has a completely injury-free squad at his disposal, with no fitness concerns to address before this match.
Last 5 Games: Won: 3, Draw: 0, Lost: 2, Scored: 11, Conceded: 7, Clean Sheets: 1.
