LiontipsFinland vs Switzerland. Prediction and Betting Tips for Olympic Games Beijing 2022 (February 16, 2022).
Command Analysis
Finland are having a very confident Olympic campaign. Suomi haven't suffered a single defeat at the tournament. At the group stage, they prevailed over Slovakia (6:2), Latvia (3:1) and Sweden (4:3 OT). The game against Sweden was the toughest for the Finns, but they managed to turn it around.
Finland were losing 0:3 after the second period, but they made a fantastic comeback in the last 20 minutes. Sakari Manninen is the top-scorer for the team. He has scored three goals and gave two assists in Beijing.
Switzerland finished bottom of their group with one point and were considered outsiders in their Round of 16 battle against the Czech Republic. However, the Swiss pulled themselves together and knocked out the Czechs (4:2). They scored two goals during power play, while goalie Leonardo Genoni made 31 saves. We think that Switzerland can create problems for the Finns in the upcoming game.
