▾
Rationale: Sweden have failed to keep a clean sheet in qualifying, defending loosely in transition and on crosses. Slovenia already scored twice in the reverse fixture and have enough movement to exploit that fragility. Sweden’s front line still carries threat, so goals at both ends look highly likely.
Summary: Fragile defences + genuine attacking quality → Both Teams To Score.
▾
Rationale: Rangnick’s Austria press high, rotate well between the lines and regularly pin visitors back in Vienna. Bosnia will eventually have to chase qualification, opening space for Austria to strike early and then again as legs tire. Their home scoring record strongly supports goals in each half.
Summary: Intensity + attacking depth at home → Austria to score in both halves.
▾
Rationale: Switzerland control territory superbly under Yakin, conceding very few clear chances and showing little interest in chaotic shoot-outs. Kosovo are organised and proud but lack the extra quality in the final third. A professional away win in a game that never fully erupts fits both sides’ profiles.
Summary: Swiss structure + Kosovo resilience → Switzerland to win & under 3.5 goals.
▾
Rationale: Spain dominate possession, press immediately after losing the ball and have not conceded in qualifying so far. Turkey’s creative options are weakened by absences and they struggled badly in the reverse fixture. Spain’s control and defensive intensity make another clean-sheet home win the clear angle.
Summary: Total midfield control + defensive streak → Spain to win to nil.
▾
Rationale: Austria and Bosnia both play front-foot football, with recent games comfortably clearing the 1.5-goal line. Spain arrive in ruthless scoring form and typically start fast then finish strongly. Combining a low, sensible goal hurdle with Spain to net in each half creates a powerful but realistic double.
- Spain have kept five straight clean sheets in qualifying and have not conceded in over 450 minutes.
- Sweden’s last seven competitive matches have all seen both teams score.
- Switzerland have lost just one of their last 14 qualifiers, conceding only twice across their last six.

Sweden vs Slovenia
Best Bet: Both Teams to Score
Sweden’s qualifying campaign has collapsed in a way few expected. A side boasting the firepower of Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyökeres and Anthony Elanga were widely tipped to secure top spot in Group B, but they instead sit bottom with a miserable single point. Their struggles have come from a combination of defensive instability, off-key finishing and a lack of cohesion under two different managers.
The Graham Potter era began badly with a 4–1 loss to Switzerland, but the performance was not entirely hopeless. Sweden created moments, moved the ball quicker through midfield and showed signs that the system might evolve. The glaring issue, however, remains their tendency to concede soft goals. They have not kept a clean sheet in any of their five qualifiers, often switching off at key moments or losing duels in front of their own penalty area.
This fragility is especially relevant given that Sweden’s last competitive clean sheet came more than a year ago. Even in friendlies, they rarely keep things tight. Their midfield tends to push forward aggressively, leaving gaps behind, and their full-backs join attacks frequently, which creates transitional vulnerability. Slovenia will recognise this as an excellent opportunity to attack early and disrupt Swedish confidence.
Slovenia, meanwhile, are not in a much better position results-wise, but their performances have generally been more controlled. They have drawn three of their five qualifiers and conceded only five goals across the group — a far more respectable defensive record than Sweden’s. But their glaring problem has been scoring. They have managed just two goals all campaign, and both came in the reverse fixture against Sweden.
That match — a 2–2 draw — tells a more accurate story of what these teams are capable of when momentum swings their way. Slovenia’s young forward Zan Vipotnik caused Sweden repeated problems with his movement, and he should be central again. With Benjamin Verbic and Nejc Gradišar likely to support him, Slovenia have enough creativity to exploit the hosts’ instability.
Sweden will look to restore some pride in front of their supporters, and with Isak expected to start, they immediately become more threatening. The Liverpool striker remains one of Europe’s most complete forwards, capable of dominating defenders with pace, balance and intelligent finishing. His presence alone increases Sweden’s expected goals significantly.
This match has the scent of a chaotic end-of-campaign contest: both sides have nothing to lose, both have leaky spells at the back, and both possess attackers capable of punishing mistakes. Slovenia struggle for goals against disciplined teams, but Sweden are not one of them. Sweden themselves generally find the net even when losing heavily.
This combination — motivated attackers, fragile systems, and historically high-scoring meetings — makes Both Teams to Score the most compelling selection. It is safer than choosing a winner, offers far more value than correct-score markets, and is supported by tactical patterns rather than blind speculation.

Austria vs Bosnia-Herzegovina
Best Bet: Austria to Score in Both Halves
Austria have been one of Europe’s most consistent attacking units in qualifying. Even removing their 10–0 demolition of San Marino, they remain one of the continent’s top-scoring sides. Ralf Rangnick has built a fluid, aggressive structure with Marcel Sabitzer, Christoph Baumgartner and Marko Arnautovic interchanging constantly to destabilise back lines.
Bosnia-Herzegovina’s defence has improved recently, but they remain prone to conceding early under pressure. With qualification on the line for both teams — and Austria needing only a point — the hosts should control the tempo from the outset. Their home record is formidable, and they have netted at least twice in five of their last seven competitive matches. With Bosnia forced to attack at some stage, Austria should find space again in the second half.
Kosovo vs Switzerland
Switzerland to Win and Under 3.5 Goals
Switzerland have been ruthless in qualifying, combining structured possession with suffocating defensive work. They have conceded just one goal in five matches, and that came in a comfortable win. Kosovo deserve respect for punching above their weight, securing playoff entry against all odds, but they are outmatched here.
Swiss manager Murat Yakin rarely allows chaotic matches on the road. His sides manage territory well, keep the ball intelligently, and rarely get drawn into end-to-end exchanges. Switzerland should win, but Kosovo’s defensive shape is good enough to prevent a thrashing, making a controlled Swiss victory with limited goals the sensible angle.
Spain vs Turkey
Best Bet: Spain to Win to Nil
Spain have been flawless across the group, dominating virtually every metric: goals scored, chances created, shots faced, and defensive solidity. Five qualifiers, five clean sheets — and barely a moment of genuine danger. Their midfield trio of Mikel Merino, Martín Zubimendi and Pablo Ruiz dictate matches with total control, allowing their wide forwards to roam aggressively.
Turkey have secured qualification hopes through consistent results against lesser sides, but they remain miles below Spain’s technical ceiling. Their only defeat in the group was a 6–0 humiliation in the reverse fixture. With key midfielders missing and defensive uncertainty, Turkey will struggle to create. Spain’s consistency, discipline and structure strongly point toward a home win without conceding.
