It’s winner-take-all when Sweden hosts Poland on Tuesday, and with attacking talent on both sides, this final has all the ingredients for goals at each end.
Robert Lewandowski’s last World Cup push meets a Sweden side led by Viktor Gyokeres, and that firepower is why my Sweden vs. Poland predictions and free betting picks are backing both teams to score in a high-stakes clash on March 31.
Sweden vs Poland picks and predictions
My Sweden vs Poland best bet: Both teams to score — Yes (-111 at Sports Interaction)
Try as they might, Sweden couldn’t escape their win over Ukraine with a clean sheet. It now marks eight consecutive matches where their defense has been breached.
Meanwhile, Poland’s 2-1 win over Albania saw both teams score for the sixth time in their last eight matches.
With what’s at stake for both nations on Tuesday, it’s unlikely we will see either side going down without a goal.
The Poles have scored in 15 consecutive matches, while the Swedes have an in-form Viktor Gyokeres coming off a hat-trick performance.
We will see goals from both countries before the end of regulation.
Sweden vs Poland same-game parlay (SGP)
Both teams to score — Yes
Over 2.5 goals
Poland double chance — Win or Draw
Both of these teams have dangerous attacks. Robert Lewandowski and Piotr Zielinski give Poland a dangerous duo, while Gyokeres and Anthony Elanga will put pressure on Poland’s defense.
Sweden’s defense is vulnerable, and Poland’s depth and adaptability will create tactical mismatches for the hosts. It’s going to put pressure on a Sweden team that simply isn’t as deep.
Jan Urban has been in charge for seven matches, and Poland has yet to lose under his leadership. That won’t change here.
This feels like a 2-1 or 2-2 result in regulation, with Poland either coming out on top or forcing extra time.
