Euro 2021: Sweden's Strengths and Weaknesses

There's always the potential for a Scandinavian dark horse at any given major tournament of Euro 2021, Sweden has every reason to be optimistic. Euro 2021 fans can book Spain Vs Sweden Tickets on our website on exclusively discounted prices.

A compact succeeding movement saw them lose only once - to Spain - and they qualified. They might have expected better from themselves at the World Cup before crashing out to England, they're now 2 years wiser and stronger and will fancy their chances in the smaller pond that is the Euro2021.

Strengths

​What makes Sweden such an unpredictable and potent threat is the wild spread of goals they have throughout the team. They scored 23 goals over their ten qualifiers, but those were scored by 11 different players, with four different strikers hitting the net at some stage.

Robin Quaison has emerged seemingly out of nowhere to become their main scoring threat and was their top scorer with five in his ten appearances. He has no shortage of competitors, with the experienced Marcus Berg, enigmatic youngster Aleksandar Isak and the wildcard John Guidetti all capable options. 

Winger Viktor Claesson started qualifying like a bat out of hell with three goals and an assist in four games before injury ravaged the remainder of the campaign, but he's expected to be back with a bang by the summer. Even if he isn't, they making things happen from deep.

The hard central defensive combination of Victor Lindelof and experienced captain Alexander Granqvist has struck up a formidable balance, as they kept six clean sheets in ten throughout qualifying. They also kept 3 clean sheets in their 5 games at the World Cup, proving they are no easy side to break down. 

Weaknesses

​However, there's always a flip side. While six clean sheets in ten are some going, none of those came against Norway or Spain - with the Faroe Islands, Malta and Romania the three sides shut out. Euro 2021 fans can book Sweden Euro Cup Tickets on our website on exclusively discounted prices.

The heart of their defence is solid and as a unit, their back four is not at all bad, but their underwhelming full-back options do let them down somewhat.  The former Celtic man Mikael Lustig remains their first-choice at right-back, while 31-year-old Copenhagen defender Pierre Bengtsson maintains a spot on the opposite flank.

Albin Ekdal and Kristoffer Olsson are the most common combination with Sebastian Larsson thrown in when Claesson is fit, and while all three are industrious - Olsson in particular not one to shy from a tackle - it's a central midfield unit that often struggles to impose itself on the game against the elite sides.
