Sweden vs Bosnia & Herzegovina Preview
Sweden sit atop Group 4 in Nations League B with ten points, two clear of their visitors. Their recent form has been patchy, with a draw and a defeat mixed in among their last five outings, but Graham Potter's squad receives a timely boost. Dejan Kulusevski and Anthony Elanga return from injury, while Genesis Antwi and Alieu Njie earn maiden senior call-ups. The Swedes drew the reverse fixture 1-1 and will be desperate to improve on that result at home.
Bosnia and Herzegovina remain firmly in the promotion conversation, sitting on eight points after a run that includes a win, two draws, and two losses from their last five matches. Their away record, however, is a concern; consistency on the road has eluded them throughout this campaign. A draw would keep their hopes alive, but anything less could effectively end their bid for League A promotion, placing enormous pressure on a squad that has struggled to deliver in hostile environments.
Sweden's two-point cushion at the top of Group 4 makes the home win at 1.55 a compelling selection. The Swedes have generated 16 big chances across the campaign, the highest tally in League B, and their attacking firepower should prove decisive. Bosnia and Herzegovina managed only a draw in the reverse fixture, and their recent form shows just one win in five outings.
The return of Dejan Kulusevski and Anthony Elanga from injury significantly bolsters Sweden's creative options. With Genesis Antwi and Alieu Njie earning maiden call-ups, Graham Potter has fresh legs to inject energy into the squad. Bosnia's away record has been inconsistent, with two draws in their last five matches suggesting they struggle to impose themselves on the road.
Backing over 2.5 goals at 1.63 also carries merit given Sweden's prolific chance creation and their need to secure the group title at home. Both teams to score at 1.68 deserves consideration too; the October meeting ended 1-1, and Bosnia possess enough quality to find the net at least once. Sweden should ultimately prevail, but expect an open, attacking contest under the lights.

Low confidence
Both lineups carry a speculated tag here, so treat the formations with a degree of caution. That said, a 4-2-3-1 versus 4-4-2 contest shapes up as a classic width battle, with Sweden's double pivot expected to screen space for Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyökeres to operate in central channels.
Bosnia's flat 4-4-2 will look to compress the midfield and rely on Edin Dzeko's experience to hold the line and link play. Sweden's attacking depth on the bench offers Jon options if the hosts need to shift tempo, though the speculative nature of both XIs means tactical plans could shift before kickoff.
