Sweden vs Ukraine: Preview, predictions, odds and how to watch Euro 2020 knockout stage in the US today

Sweden and Ukraine close the round of 16 of Euro 2020 today, June 29, at Hampden Park in Glasgow. These teams are looking to face either Germany or England in the next round. Here, find out the match preview, information, storylines, predictions, odds and how to watch this soccer game in the US.

Sweden reached the knockout stage or Euro for the first time since 2004, and in great fashion after getting a dramatic 3-2 victory over Poland last Wednesday. That consecutive win allowed them to gain the first place in the group over Spain. In their last six games, Jane Andersson’s team is in good form.

With that third goal over Poland, Sweden inadvertently helped Ukraine to gain a spot in the round of 16. Andriy Schevchenko’s team has been inconsistent so far, they lost against Netherlands and Austria but managed to get a win over North Macedonia and be one of the best thirds. However, they can treat any team and they want to prove it.

Sweden vs Ukraine: Storylines

Ukraine has a good record against Sweden, with two wins in four matches. Sweden has a win, and the other match ended up in a draw. Actually, the previous meeting between these two teams took place at Euro 2012. That day, Ukraine won 2-1 in their tournament’s debut.

That was an emotional night at the Olimpiyskiy. First, Sweden’s icon Zlatan Ibrahimovic put his team ahead, but then current Ukraine coach, Andriy Shevchenko levelled just three minutes later and finally struck the winner.

However, Ukraine didn’t progress from their group that time and neither could do it in 2016. So, this will be their first experience in the knockout stage against a rival that surprisingly has been favorable for them.
