Mexico and Sweden will lock horns in a friendly game at the Estadi Montilivi on Wednesday.
Sweden have failed to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup and after this match, they will meet Algeria in a friendly game on Saturday. This will be their first match since their Nations League group-stage game against Slovenia, which ended in a 1-1 draw in September.
Mexico are playing their second warm-up game ahead of the World Cup finals after recording an impressive 4-0 win over Iraq last week. Alexis Vega, Rogelio Funes Mori, Jesus Gallardo, and Uriel Antuna scored in that win and will be looking to continue that form in this match.
