Our football match prediction:
Hungary participated at the 2016 European Championship finals and they did well to make it to the knockout stages of the tournament. However, star-studded Belgium proved to be a big catch for the Hungarians as they rolled over Bernd Storck’s team 4-0 in the last 16. The German tactician is still in charge of the team and it remains to be seen if he is going to help Hungary qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals. On the other hand, life without Zlatan Ibrahimovic continues for Sweden and in his absence, John Guidetti will lead the line for the Nordic side in the WC qualifiers. The Swedes have been producing fine performances under Janne Anderson and we predict that they will emerge triumphant in Tuesday’s friendly against Hungary. When the two teams met in the Euro 2012 qualifiers Hungary defeated Sweden in Budapest, but we are tempted to put our money on the Blue-Yellow this time out.
Highlighted Player (Nikola Kalinic):
Nikola Kalinic is a product of Hajduk Split’s youth school. The 187-cm-tall striker scored 32 goals in 59 appearances for Hajduk at senior level and he played for the likes of Pula and Sibenik in Croatia as well. In 2009 he moved to Blackburn Rovers for fee of £6 million. Nikola Kalinic made his Blackburn Rovers debut against Sunderland on 22 August, 2009 and he scored his first goal for the Riversiders against Peterborough United in the League Cup. After making 44 league appearances for Blackburn Rovers, the Croatian attacker joined Dnipro in 2011 and he played for the Ukrainian outfit until 2015. Kalinic signed a four-year deal with Fiorentina on 15 August, 2015 and he impressed in the 2015/2016 Serie A campaign, scoring 12 goals in 36 games. The Fiorentina striker made two appearances for Croatia at the 2016 European Championship in France and it has to be noted that he found the net in a 2-1 win over Spain in the group stages of the competition.

Highlighted Team (Sweden):

Sweden are the most successful Nordic side on international stage having been present at major competitions since 1934. Blagult missed out on the 1952 World Cup trophy on home soil as they were beaten by star-studded Brazil side, while they finished in third place at the 1950 and 1994 tournaments, and finishing fourth on their second appearance in 1938. As far as their European Championship record is concerned, Sweden also achieved their best result in front of home fans, reaching the last four in 1992, and they have since reached the quarter-finals at Euro 1994 in Portugal. Anders Svensson and Thomas Ravelli are team’s most capped players with over 140 appearances each, but it is strikers Henrik Larsson and Zlatan Ibrahimovic that will go down as the most famous Swedish footballers in history. The later also leads the goalscoring charts with over 60 strikes for the national team and he is widely regarded as one of the most colourful characters, not only in Scandinavia, but in world football.
