"Best odds: 4/6 Bookmaker: Olympusbet Sweden and Slovenia, both out of contention for direct qualification to the 2026 FIFA World Cup from Group B, will meet on Tuesday in their final group-stage clash. The hosts sit bottom of the table with just one point from five matches, while the visitors occupy third place with three points from the same number of games."
"Sweden are rooted to the bottom of the standings with only one point from five fixtures, ending any hope of qualifying through the group stage. Their opening match offered early promise-a spirited display in a 2-2 draw with Slovenia-but a stoppage-time equalizer from Žan Vipotnik denied them victory. That setback was followed by three straight defeats: twice to Kosovo (2-0 and 1-0) and once to Switzerland (2-0), prompting the dismissal of manager Jon Dahl Tomasson after the September international break."
Sweden and Slovenia enter their final Group B fixture already eliminated from automatic qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Sweden sit bottom with one point from five matches after an opening 2-2 draw with Slovenia was followed by defeats to Kosovo (twice) and Switzerland. Jon Dahl Tomasson was dismissed and Graham Potter was appointed, but Potter's debut ended in a 4-1 loss to Switzerland. Alexander Isak could return to the starting lineup alongside Benjamin Nygren, with Emil Forsberg, Anthony Elanga, Yasin Ayari and Alexander Bernhardsson options in midfield. Slovenia have three points from five matches, including three draws and two goalless stalemates.
