Poland vs Sweden – After defeating Czech Republic by a solitary goal in extra time, Poland will face Sweden for a place at the World Cup in 2022.
The Swedes were eliminated from the World Cup after losing 1-0 to Spain in their last group game. Only a win would have given them a chance to beat the 2010 World Champions.
The Poles, on the other hand, were given a walkover against Russia after finishing second in their group, six points behind England.
In the summer, the two teams competed in the European Championships. It was the final group game, and Sweden had the last laugh by eliminating Poland in a thrilling match.
After Emil Forsberg’s double was cancelled out by a pair of Lewandowski goals in the second half, Viktor Claesson’s late strike sealed the victory. Poland was relegated to the bottom of the group after a 3-2 defeat, while Sweden finished first, ahead of Spain.
Sweden has an unblemished head-to-head record against Poland, having won eight of the nine competitive matches played thus far. Poland’s lone victory came in the 1974 World Cup, in the first-ever official encounter between the two teams.
Their three trips to Poland all ended in nil-nil victories, the most recent in 2003 by a razor-thin 1-0 margin. In three of their last four encounters with Poland, Sweden has scored exactly three goals.
Poland vs Sweden – Betting Analysis
Poland’s defense will be scrutinized; they have been leaking goals for some time and have only kept two clean sheets in their last 14 outings. And they came against the bottom-ranked teams in the world, like as Albania and San Marino. On the other end, the Poles, led by Robert Lewandowski, had little trouble scoring goals.
At the same time, Sweden has given up far too many goals, particularly while playing away from home, making this match a decent bet for over 1.5 goals. However, adventurous bettors can get the most out of their stakes by backing the over 2.5 goals at 2.60 odds.
Robert Lewandowski is on fire right now, scoring six goals in his previous three outings for Bayern Munich. He’s also scored eight goals in as many World Cup qualifying games this season, so we can’t go wrong betting on him to score at the Slaski Stadium tomorrow.
