Sweden are set to play Slovakia in the men's tournament in ice hockey at the 2022 Winter Olympics. We assessed the teams' chances and made a prediction for this match.

Command Analysis

Sweden

Sweden had a difficult game against Latvia in the first round of the tournament. Tre Kronor had an advantage throughout the game, but due to several penalties they were left shorthanded and almost allowed Latvia to level the score. We would like to give special praise to forward Wallmark, who netted a double.

While this wasn't a very convincing performance from the Swedish team, the Yellow-and-Blues remain one of the favorites to qualify for the playoffs.

Slovakia

Slovakia started their campaign with a devastating defeat to Finland (2:6). Goalie Konrad wasn't very reliable in the opening game and managed to save only 80% of the shots.

Slovakia don't have a very powerful roster, and most of the players represent the National League, but there also are some KHL club players. The team will be looking to bounce back from the disastrouds first game.
