To build a prediction for the Estonia - Sweden match, scheduled for 9 September 2023, several key factors could influence the outcome. These sides last met on 30 March 2021 at Sweden's ground, where the home side came out on top.
In this group, three teams will compete for two places at the Euros. After three rounds, the Sweden national team has three points, but there is no doubt that they will join the fight for qualification.

The teams play quite well in attack. Each team’s average total is above 2. I mean the Europa League. There are no head-to-head matches, but the recent games give reason to hope for another high-scoring match between them.
Sweden need to win if the national team still have the task of advancing from the group. All the key players are in the squad. If the national team are motivated and determined to win, I see no reason why they cannot take three points today.
