Sweden vs USA Prediction

The Swedish women's team entered the 2023 World Cup round of 16 with the top position in Group G with a perfect record.

But this achievement also partly comes from the fact that they were drawn into a not-so-difficult group with weaker opponents like Italy, South Africa and Argentina.

In the group stage, the Nordic team demonstrated a diverse and unpredictable attacking style.

Besides, they are also very good at controlling the game thanks to their experienced and technical midfield.

On the other hand, despite coming to the 2023 World Cup as world champions, the US women's team is having disappointing performances.

After the victory over the Vietnamese women's team on the opening day, the American team drew two consecutive matches against the Netherlands and Portugal.

These unimpressive results made the champion of the last two World Cups only enter the round of 16 with second place in Group E.

Bringing too many young players to this tournament is affecting the strength of the US women's team.

Their gameplay is not seamless, their attacks lack variety and are not very effective.

In addition, winning two consecutive World Cup titles seems to have reduced their motivation.

Right in the round of 16, the US women's team faced a huge challenge named Sweden.

In terms of personnel quality, playing style and many other factors, Sweden is not too inferior to the US.

But over the years, Alex Morgan and his teammates have always been in the upper hand because they have stability.

However, at the 2023 World Cup, the Swedish women's team is better than the champion in this point.

Looking back at history, in the last 5 encounters, the US women's team is slightly better, winning 3, drawing 1 and losing 1 against their opponent.

That said, even though they are not playing well, the team ranked number 1 on the FIFA rankings is still a major force in world football.

And if not careful, Sweden is at risk of losing to Morgan and his teammates.
