Sweden comes to this match motivated, after a 2x1 win at the reception to Croatia, thus adding the first victory in this League of Nations: the team's goals were scored by Marcus Danielson and Dejan Kulusevski. In this match against France, coach Janne Andersson is expected to play in the usual 4-4-2, however, with a very cautious strategy, as the rival has players of great individual value. On an individual level, we highlight Dejan Kulusevski, a very fast player and expert in the transition from defense to attack. For this match the coach cannot count on Albin Ekdal, suspended.
