Sweden vs Azerbaijan: Reviving the spirit

Sweden's first match in the Euro 2024 qualifier could not be more disappointing when it lost 0-3 to Belgium. Worth mentioning, this is the match that coach Andersson and his team are playing at home.

Disappointingly, Sweden's chances of winning a ticket to the Euro Finals are still completely open because they still have 7 matches left in Group F qualifying to improve their ranking. In the immediate future, Ibrahimović and his teammates will have an easy 90 minutes against Azerbaijan and this is an opportunity for them to vent their anger after the loss to Belgium.

Overall, Sweden is a reliable team when it won 4 of the last 5 matches in all competitions. If only at home, they won 12 matches and drew 2 out of the last 17 matches. Across the field, Azerbaijan is the favorite prey of Group F. Remember, in the opening match of the qualifying round, they had a crushing 1-4 defeat against Austria.
