A Stockholm Duel with Euro Dreams at Stake
Key Stats
– Austria’s Christoph Baumgartner was instrumental in their last win against Sweden, a potential game-changer for the upcoming fixture.
– David Alaba’s inclusion in the game against Moldova shifted the tide for Austria, showcasing his importance to the team.
In the race for Euro 2024’s Group F’s top-two spots, the stage is set for a riveting encounter as Sweden welcome Austria in Stockholm on Tuesday evening. With the tussle for supremacy in the group becoming more pronounced, both nations are going all out for the kill.
Sweden’s Road to Redemption
Coming off a devastating win against Estonia, Sweden, with its renewed vigour, are seeking to close the four-point gap with Austria. Their recent 5-0 victory in Tallinn was an exhibition of their potential. Yet, the Swedes find themselves at a crossroads; two losses from three outings position them precariously in Group F.

Their dazzling performance against Estonia highlighted the strength of Sweden’s post-Zlatan era, with the next-gen forwards – Viktor Gyokeres, Dejan Kulusevski, and Alexander Isak – all making their mark. However, the journey hasn’t been entirely smooth. A similar 5-0 triumph against Azerbaijan in March was shadowed by defeats to Austria and Belgium, presenting Janne Andersson’s side with challenges aplenty.
Having missed out on the Qatar 2022 spectacle, Sweden teeters on the edge of missing Europe’s elite international showdown since Euro 1996. Their UEFA Nations League performance last season was another nail in the coffin, relegating them to the third tier.
Austria’s Ambition
Austria, on the other hand, are on a promising trajectory. Drawing level with Belgium on 10 points at the midpoint, the Austrians have their eyes set on the finals, to be hosted by their neighbours, Germany. Their recent competitive exploit saw them clinching a win against Sweden, courtesy of a stellar performance by RB Leipzig’s Christoph Baumgartner.
Under the guidance of German tactician, Ralf Rangnick, Austria’s rejuvenated side has showcased resilience. Despite a rocky start to his tenure, Rangnick has managed to galvanise his troops, with morale skyrocketing after securing a point from Belgium. Their recent 1-1 stalemate against Moldova is a testament to their determination, with Real Madrid stalwart, David Alaba, and Michael Gregoritsch restoring the equilibrium.
The Predictions
1. Match Outcome: Draw
Considering the recent form and the BettingTips4You Expert Ratings, this match may not see either side securing a convincing victory. Sweden’s recent momentum, especially their 5-0 wins, suggests they are a formidable force at home. Conversely, Austria’s unbeaten streak and their previous triumph over the Swedes make them strong contenders too.
2. Correct Score: 1-1
Based on Austria’s recent 1-1 draw against Moldova and Sweden’s goal-scoring prowess with the likes of Kulusevski and Isak, it’s plausible to expect both teams to score but possibly cancel each other out.
3. Goalscorer: Alexander Isak
Newcastle United’s striker, Alexander Isak, recently broke his national team goal drought and is likely to spearhead the attack. Given his current form and his evident confidence boost, predicting him as a goalscorer seems a logical choice.
