Sweden meet Bosnia and Herzegovina in Solna for a crucial UEFA Nations League League B, Group 4 fixture. The main tip is both teams to score, supported by Sweden's run of BTTS in 12 of their last 14 matches and Bosnia's record of scoring in 20 of their last 23 games. Sweden remain unbeaten in the group but have struggled for clean sheets, while Bosnia have also extended their unbeaten run and regularly find the net. A small stake is also suggested on the draw, reflecting both teams' recent resilience.

Sweden vs Bosnia and Herzegovina Predictions

Sweden face Bosnia and Herzegovina at Strawberry Arena in Solna in Saturday's penultimate UEFA Nations League League B, Group 4 fixture.

Graham Potter's in-form side rarely keeps clean sheets, while Bosnia have proven a reliable choice to score in the past 12 months. 

I'm backing BTTS while I also have a small stake on a draw.

Both Teams Backed to Score in Solna


  • Sweden have seen BTTS in 12 of their last 14 matches
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina have seen BTTS in 13 of their last 17 matches 
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina scored 1+ goals in 20 of their last 23 matches
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina drew 8 of their last 13 matches

Sweden Unbeaten in H2H Record

Sweden and Bosnia and Herzegovina have met on two previous occasions. Sweden claimed a 4-2 friendly win in 2010 before a 1-1 draw in October's Nations League contest in Bosnia. 

Sweden Remain Unbeaten in Group 4

Sweden continued their unbeaten Nations League campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Romania in Bucharest last month.

Viktor Gyokeres gave Graham Potter's side an early advantage and, despite creating several opportunities to extend their lead, were unable to add a second.

The Swedes registered 12 shots to Romania's 13 but were far more threatening in front of goal. Final xG totals of 2.84 and 0.56 reflected the visitors' dominance in Bucharest.

Still unbeaten in Group 4, Potter's men kicked-off their Nations League campaign with back-to-back home wins against Romania (2-1) and Poland (3-1). 

A lack of clean sheets remains the biggest issue. Sweden conceded at least one goal in 18 successive fixtures before their narrow win in Romania. 

Coming into this fixture, Sweden remain top of the section with ten points, two ahead of Bosnia. 

Bosnia and Herzegovina Extend Unbeaten Run

Bosnia and Herzegovina make the trip to Solna in high spirits after a narrow 1-0 home win against Poland in October.

Ivan Basic converted a late penalty to secure a priceless three points for the Dragons.

Both teams could have claimed victory in a competitive contest in Zencia. Poland registered more shots (18-9) but finished with only a marginally higher xG total (1.57-1.17).

Sergej Barbarez's men have performed well in a competitive League B, Group 4 section. Bosnia sit second in the group, with two wins and two draws picked up from four fixtures.

Before their fine win against Poland, Bosnia also picked up a 1-1 draw with Sweden after an entertaining 4-2 win in Romania and a goalless draw away to Poland. 

A much-improved side over the past 12 months, the Dragons have won five and lost just two of their last 16 internationals. 

Nine matches finished level, with the resilient Eastern Europeans holding higher-ranked opponents including Italy, Wales, Austria, Sweden, Poland and Canada.

Sweden vs Bosnia and Herzegovina Squads Team News

Sweden Squad

Goalkeepers: Jacob Widell Zetterstrom, Viktor Johansson, Noel Tornqvist.
Defenders: Gustaf Lagerbielke, Victor Lindelof (captain), Eric Smith, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Felix Beijmo, Daniel Svensson, Elliot Stroud, Hjalmar Ekdal, Genesis Antwi.
Midfielders: Alexander Bernhardsson, Patrik Walemark, Jesper Karlstrom, Yasin Ayari, Sebastian Nanasi, Hugo Larsson, Dejan Kulusevski (vice-captain).
Forwards: Alexander Isak, Benjamin Nygren, Anthony Elanga, Viktor Gyokeres, Alieu Njie.

Sweden boss Potter has a 23-man squad available for Saturday's Nations League contest. 

Alexander Isak and Dejan Kulusevski are back in the squad after injury lay-offs. Isak could 
partner Viktor Gyokeres in attack, while Kulusevski is likely to feature from the bench. 

Besfort Zeneli has withdrawn with an injury while Emil Holm is also unavailable. 

Strasbourg defender Genesis Antwi is one of three uncapped players included in the selection.

Speaking to the Independent, Potter revealed his delight to see Kulusevski make his return after a 17-month injury layoff. 

“It was just a beautiful moment to see him on the pitch. I’ve not worked with him; that's how long he’s been away, but everybody in the national team says he’s so important, so influential.”

Bosnia and Herzegovina Squad

Goalkeepers: Martin Zlomislic, Salko Hamzic, Mladen Jurkas.
Defenders: Sead Kolasinac (captain), Amar Dedic, Nikola Katic, Tarik Muharemovic, Nihad Mujakic, Arjan Malic, Stjepan Radeljic, Zinedin Smajlovic.
Midfielders: Benjamin Tahirovic, Armin Gigovic, Esmir Bajraktarevic, Ivan Basic, Dzenis Burnic, Amar Memic, Kerim Alajbegovic, Ivan Sunjic, Ermin Mahmic.
Forwards: Ermedin Demirovic, Haris Tabakovic, Samed Bazdar, Jovo Lukic, Matej Deket.

Bosnia coach Sergej Barbarez named a 25-man squad available for the trip to Sweden. 

Tarik Muharemovic (suspended) and Dennis Hadzikadunic (injured) are notable absentees from the selection.

Nikola Katic and Zinedin Smajlovic are among those in contention to come into the visitors' defence. 

Ermedin Demirovic and Haris Tabakovic are expected to lead the attack following the international retirement of veteran forward Edin Dzeko last month. 

Verdict

Sweden have a strong home record, but Bosnia have proven their quality in a strong Nations League campaign.

I have my stake on BTTS while I also fancy the visitors to pinch a point.
