Sweden vs Austria Prediction and Betting Tips (10.05.2025)

Command Analysis

Sweden

Current form

The Swedish national team took a responsible approach to the home World Cup and did a lot of work before the start of the World Cup. Sam Hallam's team brought a very strong squad to the final stage of the European Tour and did not lose a single match. They started with a victory over the Swiss (2:1), and then won against the national teams of the Czech Republic (4:2) and Finland (6:2), despite the fact that the Czech team was quite strong. The hosts have very powerful combinations, only the last five do not consist of players from the best league on the planet.

Tre Krunur didn't give themselves time to rock up and went forward and attacked in the very first match of the tournament. The Scandinavians scored three goals against Slovakia in the opening period and scored once more in each of the next two 20 minutes. Mikael Backlund and Elias Lindholm performed better than others. Each of the forwards scored two points.

Disqualifications and injuries

The Swedes have no injured players.

Interesting betting trends

The Swedes scored five goals in the opening match of the tournament
The Scandinavians shot 20 times at the Slovaks' goal in the first game.

Austria

Current form

The team from Austria played very well at last year's World Cup and took fifth place in the Group A table, passing ahead of the powerful teams from Canada, Switzerland, the Czech Republic and Finland. Roger Bader's team failed to qualify for the Olympics and mostly played only friendly matches. The Austrians looked pretty weak before the start of the World Cup and were able to win only one match since the beginning of the year, having played as many as 11 games.

At the start of the tournament, the nominal guests competed with the Finnish national team. Already in the first eight minutes, the Austrian national team was losing 0-2, but it managed to close the gap even before the break. Despite all attempts to win back, the Austrians were unable to even the score, with a little over five minutes before the end of regular time, they were denied a goal.

Tip and bets

1.95Sweden with a head start (-4.5)

The hosts are in great shape, and the Swedes are terrifying to any opponent. The Scandinavians started the home tournament with a confident victory over the Slovaks, playing almost without mistakes. The Austrian national team gave battle to the Finns, who now look pretty deplorable. It's hard to believe that the guests will be able to at least do something against a famous rival. We think that Tre Krunur will win without any problems, and they will do it with a difference of at least five goals. We offer a bet on the Swedish national team with a minus handicap.

Our betting tip is that Sweden will win with an Asian handicap of -4.5 goals in 1.95

Betting on an individual total

The attack of the Swedish national team proved itself well in the opening match. Tre Krunur scored three goals in the first period and calmed down a bit after that. The Austrians conceded only one goal from the Finns, but now it will be much more difficult for them. We believe that the hosts will score at least six accurate shots on the opponent's goal.

Betting Tip - the individual total of the Swedish national team is more than 5.5 goals per 2.00

Bet on the total

The Swedes are moving forward from the first minute, because they are being pushed by the home stands. The Austrians will definitely have chances to score, especially if the hosts quickly secure a comfortable advantage. We think that neither side will sit on its half of the court. We believe in effective hockey and we suggest putting more goals on the total.

Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.55
