Sweden Women v England Women Tips

England’s tactical discipline and knockout stage composure should edge Sweden in this quarter final. England are averaging 3.7 tournament goals per match while Sweden conceded just once in group stages but were untested by elite pressure. The Lionesses' “proper England” identity, blending pressing from midfield, wide threats like Lauren James and Hemp, and veteran leadership at the back, gives them the edge. Expect an open game with goals on both ends, and England progressing through.

These sides have drawn back-to-back meetings during recent history, both taking place during the qualification process for this tournament. Sweden Women are currently on a 15-game unbeaten run before this, while England Women have put their 2-1 defeat to France Women behind them after back-to-back wins recently, both in convincing style. The Lionesses have spoken about their respect for their opponents' quality this week and I think this will be another close game here on form as well.

Will go for Sweden Women here. They had momentum coming into this tournament and have kept it going. Top of their group, they got to rest some of the squad. It's going to be a tight affair with the two teams playing out draws both times they met in qualifying. England are free-scoring and the Swedes have one of the best defenses. The Swedes to just nick it in a tight game.

The history of Sweden and England games has been quite low scoring, and England has kept back-to-back clean sheets also.

Quarter-final and security do not rhyme with those teams. Known for attacking power. Sweden beat Germany by 4, in a game that had little importance due to the next opponent. England scored 6 against Wales, and 4 against the Netherlands before that.

Both sides have shown themselves more than capable of racking up the goals so far this tournament. In a clash between them, I think BTTS YES is good value.

England have won only once in 6 meetings with Sweden despite being favorites in 5 of those meetings. The last two times these sides met were draws, and a repeat could be on the cards.

I think England will win this match because they are better. BTTS because both teams are in excellent form. Come on, girls.
