Euro 2008 Russia vs Sweden Predictions

Russia and Sweden will meet in a decisive qualifying match. Both teams have 3 points each, Russia will qualify only if they win while Sweden should go through even if they draw due to better goal difference.

I expect a very good match where Russia should consider atacking as their only option. Sweden has a more mature team with experienced players so I think they will manage a draw at least.

Euro 2008 Sweden vs Spain Predictions

Sweden and Spain will meet in the third match of Group D. Both teams come after pretty clear victories against Russia and Greece and if any of them will win this match they will be qualified for quarterfinals.

Sweden seems to be a strong team, both in atack and defense and provided a fine display against the 2004 euro champions.

Spain is one of the most entertaining teams so far and the clear victory against Russia wasn’t an accident. Good defenders, creative midfielders and excellent strikers which is a great combination, isn’t it? If they will carry on playing they way they did in the first match I see them at least in the semifinals. However the match against Sweden will be pretty close with both of the teams trying to get the qualification.

The Euro 2004 winners, Greece will play Sweden in the second match of Group D. Even if they were the european champions at that time I was pretty unimpressed by their ultra-defensive and somehow ugly football. I also felt sorry for Portugal who played a fast and creative football but they were unlucky.

However Greece had an excellent qualifying campaign finishing top of their group, some seven points ahead Turkey. I expect them to play the same type of football they used to play four years ago, this time without a happy end…

Sweden is a strong team as they have been for the past 15 years or so. Quality players and good team work. They also have a good potential to reach the quarterfinals. I expect the match to be pretty close with both of the teams paying atention to defense more than atacking. I also expect a lot of work and effort from both of them without playing an entertaining match.

Our tip for Greece – Sweden is x2 – draw or Sweden win.

Sweden qualified from Group F where they had to play against Spain, Nortern Ireland and Denmark. They will play in Euro group D against Spain, Greece and Russia.
