Open poll and resultsSweden vs Bosnia & Herzegovina prediction
This is a fixture that may well decide who secures automatic promotion to League A and who winds up in the promotion play-offs next March. Sweden currently hold the advantage at the top of Group B4 with ten points, but Bosnia & Herzegovina are snapping at their heels and, like the Swedes, are yet to be beaten in this season's Nations League.
There's been little to choose between these two countries so far. Both have conceded only three goals, while Sweden have scored just one more than their opponents. The reverse fixture between the pair ended in a 1-1 draw.
What perhaps gives Sweden the edge is their strike partnership of Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyokeres. The latter has scored in every one of his side's group games so far, and with Isak having recently found his best form for Liverpool, it bodes well for the hosts heading into this big showdown.
In what should be a close battle, it's worth backing that world-class Swedish frontline to be the difference and what ultimately earns them victory.
