Sweden will entertain Estonia at the Friends Arena in their final match of the UEFA Euro 2024 qualification campaign on Sunday.
The hosts are winless in their last three games in the qualifiers and suffered a 3-0 away loss to Azerbaijan on Thursday. It was their fourth defeat of the campaign and will look to sign off for the campaign on a positive note.
The visitors have endured a winless run in the qualifiers and fell to their fifth loss on the trot on Thursday as first-half goals from Konrad Laimer and Philipp Lienhart condemned them to a 2-0 home defeat to Austria. Including friendlies, their winless run stretches to nine games.
