Sweden vs Czech Republic Prediction & Tips
Sweden will be able to take advantage of the home ground factor in their World Cup play-off against the Czech Republic in Solna. The match will once again be played at the Friends Arena, the home stadium of the Scandinavian national team. Janne Andersson’s Swedes finished behind Spain in their group, losing their last two games without scoring a goal against Georgia and the Red Furies. Coach Jaroslav Silhavy’s Czechs were guaranteed a play-off place in their UEFA Nations League group, having finished third behind Belgium and Wales in the World Cup. However, they finished on a high with a draw followed by victories over Belarus and Estonia.
This is only the fourth meeting in history with Sweden having won once and drawn twice.
Both teams have scored in the three previous head-to-heads.
Sweden have won four out of four home games in World Cup qualifying, scoring eight goals and conceding just one.
The Czech Republic won away games in World Cup qualifying against the two teams (Estonia and Belarus) who finished behind them, but lost in the other two games.
Sweden’s 4 wins at home in the qualifying phase encourages us to try the sign 1 again in this challenge against the Czech Republic. The odds are good and the Czechs have not excelled in the tournament on the road. Sweden already won four years ago at home in the play-off against Italy.
