Prediction: 2-0
Moldova
Sweden will be aiming to make amends for a heart-breaking loss to Austria in the Euro 2024 qualifiers when they face Moldova in a friendly on Thursday. The Swedes will use this match as a good preparation for the upcoming qualifier against Belgium and we are positive that boss Jan Andersson is going to mix the squad. The likes of Claesson, Karlsson, and Gustafson are pushing for a start after the trio came off the bench in the last Euro 2024 qualifier.
The Moldovans, on the other hand, did well to beat Faroe Islands 1-0 in their last competitive game, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Sweden, who are a real force to be reckoned with at home. In their last meeting in a friendly, back in 2020, Sweden defeated Moldova Jordan Larsson’s goal and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
Highlighted Team (Sweden):
Sweden are the most successful Nordic side on international stage having been present at major competitions since 1934. Blagult missed out on the 1952 World Cup trophy on home soil as they were beaten by star-studded Brazil side, while they finished in third place at the 1950 and 1994 tournaments, and finishing fourth on their second appearance in 1938.
As far as their European Championship record is concerned, Sweden also achieved their best result in front of home fans, reaching the last four in 1992, and they have since reached the quarter-finals at Euro 1994 in Portugal.
Anders Svensson and Thomas Ravelli are team’s most capped players with over 140 appearances each, but it is strikers Henrik Larsson and Zlatan Ibrahimovic that will go down as the most famous Swedish footballers in history. The later also leads the goalscoring charts with over 60 strikes for the national team and he is widely regarded as one of the most colourful characters, not only in Scandinavia, but in world football.
