Sweden, one of the underdogs in this summer’s European Championships, suffered a major setback when Zlatan Ibrahimovic had to pull out just before the tournament due to a sustained injury. However, the Swedes have shown the grit and determination they possess, going mech to neck against Spain in their first group game and fishing out a draw. What followed was two consecutive wins over Slovakia and Poland, with scorelines of 1-0 and 3-2 as they eventually topping the group E. Their star striker Alexander Isak has shown a ray of assurance in the absence of Ibrahimovic, with Leipzig midfielder Emil Forsberg in good form as well, netting three goals in last two matches and Victor Lindelof has also looked rock solid at the back. With such a strong display in recent games, Sweden will definitely hope to surpass the Ukrainian challenge and qualify for the Quarter finals.

Ukraine, rather had a mixed fortune in the group stages, as they toiled to qualify for the knockouts with a couple of results not going their way. Ukraine put in tough fights against group favourites Netherlands and Austria, but suffered heartbreaks on both the occasions. However, they managed to qualify for the last 16, thanks to their 2-1 win over a weakly North Macedonia side in their second group game. However, the performance of Roman Yaremchuk and Andriy Yarmolenko would be a huge boost for them, with both having two goals beside their names. The never give up mentality of Ukrainians would be up on display once again, as they face tough task against Sweden in the round of 16.
