THE PREDICTION
Going into this event, Sweden was seen as one of the favourites for the gold medal and it’s no surprise to see them having started so well in the round-robin stage, winning both their opening matches. Italy meanwhile, were beaten 7-5 by Great Britain in their first encounter and face a tough task to turn things round against the reigning World Champions. Niklas Edin and his team have scored the most numbers of points so far at the event and such firepower on the ice should see them prove too strong for the Italians. Expect this Swedish side, high on confidence and quality to win through here.
