In the final of the European World Cup qualification playoffs, Sweden will face Poland at Strawberry Arena. The teams have met four times on Swedish soil, with the hosts winning on every occasion: 2-1 in the 1989 World Cup qualifiers, 2-0 and 3-0 in the Euro 1999 and 2003 qualifying campaigns, and 3-1 in a 2004 friendly. The upcoming match will determine who secures a place in the final stage of the tournament.

Sweden endured a very disappointing main qualifying round, finishing last in Group B with just two points. During the campaign, the team drew with Slovenia, lost twice to Kosovo, and also suffered defeats against Switzerland. Graham Potter’s side reached the playoffs thanks to a strong performance in the Nations League. In the semifinal, Sweden defeated Ukraine 3-1 in Valencia, with Arsenal forward Viktor Gyökeres scoring a hat trick. Now the hosts will look to use their home advantage to bounce back from their group-stage struggles and qualify for the World Cup.
