Sweden vs Austria prediction

It was a professional job done by Sweden in their opening match, beating Slovakia 5-0, demonstrating both potency offensively and defensive stability to shut out their opponents. Austria meanwhile, were solid from a defensive perspective, but couldn’t get anything going from an attacking point of view.

Sweden look an impressive all-round team and Austria will find it very difficult to score past them, let alone keeping them out at the other end. It’s well worth backing Sweden to make it consecutive Group A wins.
