Sweden vs Northern Ireland: betting tip for the World Cup qualification match

Current form

On March 22, Sweden surprised many fans of European football, because in a friendly match, the Scandinavians lost to Luxembourg with a minimum score of 0:1. This defeat was the first in the last seven meetings in which they managed to win five times and once a draw was recorded. The fans of the national team hope that this was due to the fact that the match was friendly, and, of course, they expect that the team will play more reliably in the qualifying campaign, especially since the match will be held on their own soil, and the opponent clearly does not reach the level of Swedish football players.

Disqualifications and injuries

Svensson and Kulusevki are injured and will not enter the field. 

Interesting betting trends

• Sweden won three matches in a row on their own field.

• In six of the last ten matches, the hosts have conceded

Approximate composition: Olsen – Starfelt, Hin, Gudmundsson – Eliasson, Karlstrom, Zeneli, Saletros, Dal –Elanga, Isak.

Current form

Northern Ireland's performance is also impressive. This team has a winless streak of five matches in a row — three draws and two wins. A few days ago, there was a home game with Switzerland, and that match ended with a score of 1:1. The upcoming opponent is much more serious than the previous opponent, so Michael O'Neill's wards need to give their best 100% to try at least not to lose. And the Northern Irishmen don't play as well away as they do on their own field. They can't win four matches in a row on the road — two draws and two defeats.

Disqualifications and injuries

Ballard, Bradley, McCann are injured and will not play. 

Interesting betting trends

• Northern Ireland has not won away for four consecutive games

• In only one of the last seven meetings, the visitors failed to score

Approximate composition: P. Charles – Ham, McNair, Brown – Spencer, S. Charles, Saville, Smith – Galbraith – Bonis, Price.
