Locked together at the top of League C Group 1 with two games to play, Sweden and Slovakia will battle it out to take the outright lead when they meet on Saturday evening.

Sweden: 

Competing in League C for the first time after back-to-back relegations, Sweden has dominated most opponents, with three wins and a draw. A strong attack led by Viktor Gyökeres and Alexander Isak has seen them average nearly three goals per game. Despite a setback in last month's 2-2 draw with Slovakia, they bounced back with a commanding 3-0 victory over Estonia. Sweden holds the top spot on goal difference and can seal promotion by avoiding defeat on Saturday and winning their final match against Azerbaijan.

Slovakia: 

Matching Sweden’s 10-point tally, Slovakia can secure promotion with a win in Solna. Their resilience was on display last month when they fought back from two goals down to draw against the Swedes. Having already guaranteed at least a playoff spot, Francesco Calzona's side aims to prove they belong in League B after impressive performances in 2024, including victories over Belgium and Wales. Slovakia's recent success in major tournaments, like their close-run loss to England at Euro 2024, makes them formidable challengers.

Prediction: 3-2
