Prediction: 2-1
Sweden
First place in Group B and automatic qualification for the 2022 World Cup finals will be at stake when Spain and Sweden face each other at Estadio de La Cartuja on Sunday evening. La Roja climbed to top position thanks to a hard-fought 1-0 win over Greece, and, no doubt, they are brimming with confidence ahead of the decider. Fit-again Leipzig midfielder Dani Olmo is pushing for a start, as well as Barcelona ace Sergio Busquets.
Since Sweden face a must-win situation in Sunday’s showdown, we predict that Luis Enrique’s troops will have a number of opportunities to score on the break. The Scandinavians, on the other hand, suffered a shocking 2-0 loss to Georgia on Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s return to the squad, and seeing that Spain are hungry for revenge, we are tempted to put our money on the home team. Juventus attacker Dejan Kulusevski should be recalled to Sweden’s starting XI.

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.

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.
