Portugal hosts Sweden in round 4 of the UEFA Nations League A. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 14th at Estadio Jose Alvalade (Lisbon)
The Portuguese national team is in first place in its group of the Nations League. Portugal defeated Croatia (4: 1) and Sweden (0:2), and the match with France ended in a goalless draw. Now the Swedish national team is next in line. The Portuguese demonstrate an excellent game on their pitch. In the last five games, the team gained four victories and one draw, conceded only one goal, and scored as many as 14 times. As for the last home game, Portugal played a friendly match with Spain and tied with a 0-0 score, but, as we perfectly understand, the coach did not field the regular lineup. I think the Portuguese should have no problems with the Swedes. The hosts are quite reliable in defense and have a group of very qualified attacking players.

Sweden is the last in its group and shows a rather poor quality of football. The defeats to France (0:1) and the national team of Portugal (0:2) show that the Swedes are not in the best shape now. And they lost to the Croats in the last away round (2:1). Yes, the Swedes beat the Russian national team in a friendly match (1:2), but the lineups and mood will be significantly different, so I think it will be hard for Sweden in the upcoming match with the Portuguese.
Portugal really looks much stronger than Sweden right now. The first place meets the last. In the current Nations League, the Portuguese scored six times and conceded only one goal. The Swedes, in turn, scored only one and conceded five. The numbers speak for themselves. The Swedes are in disgusting conditions and do not show a high-quality game. Portugal has not lost for twenty-four home matches, and the hosts are unlikely to lose now. The last head-to-head match ended in a 2:0 victory of the Portuguese. And I think the favorite is likely to win again.
Prediction for the match: Portugal to win
