Match Preview
Mexico come into this match brimming with confidence after a perfect start to Group F and a draw here will be enough to secure top spot. Sweden meanwhile, started well with a win over South Korea but then lost spectacularly to a last-gasp German goal, and now need a positive result here to maintain hopes of progressing. |
After their superb victory over reigning World Cup (WC) champions Germany, Mexico have proved they now have the required tenacity and defensive discipline to compliment their already impressive attacking threat – which may see them become real contenders to lift the cup. Their coach Juan Carlos Osorio will look for a tight and patient display from his side here knowing a point is enough to qualify top. |
Sweden have already exceeded pre-tournament expectations by fans and pundits alike, and have produced some dogged performances so far. They came within seconds of securing their place in the last-16, but that loss is a hammerblow for the Swedes and qualification for the knockout stages is now out of their hands. |
In terms of the H2H, Sweden have the edge (W2, D1, L1) – although three of the four meetings were friendlies. In their only previous competitive match, Sweden were hosts of the 1958 WC and beat Mexico 3-0 in the group stages. |
Players to watch: Hirving Lozano (MEX) could pose the biggest threat to Sweden with his surging runs and eye for goal (one goal, one assist). |
As captain, Andreas Granqvist (SWE) always gives his all and scored the winner against South Korea. |
Stat attack: Sweden have kept three clean sheets in their last five matches, and six in their last ten (all competitions). |
Mexico have only lost two of their last ten matches in all competitions (W6, D2, L2). |
Both sides have seen only one of their last five matches finish with both teams scoring. |
