Greece - Sweden

For the 2nd group of the qualifiers of the 2022 World Cup, Greece welcomes Sweden in the OAKA of Athens.

Another disappointing performance and a bad result for Greece, on Sunday night was left in the 1-1 draw in Pristina against Kosovo. In a match with few phases, Greece could not impose its rhythm and create phases in the opponent's home, however, in the delays of the first half, it managed to take the lead in the score. In the replay he had an unexpectedly passive role and with only the sense of passing the time to finish the match he paid for it in a painful way as seconds before the end he accepted the draw for the final 1-1.
Thus, with the 3rd draw in an equal number of matches, she essentially said goodbye to her already minimal hopes for qualification in the finals of the tournament, now growing the moan for the Dutch Fanit Schip who will soon be past the team's bench.

Excellent Sweden in its last match for the group, prevailed in Stockholm, Spain with 2-1 and took a decisive qualifying step. He may have been left behind in the score only in the 4 ΄ but before the celebrations of the Spaniards had ended, he had equalized the match with the pace dropping until the end of the half. In the replay and specifically in 57, she completed the overthrow and despite the pressure of her opponents, especially in the last minutes, she endured and got the valuable three points.
With this victory, Sweden made 3/3 in the group, reaching 9 points, one behind Spain, but having 2 matches less.
On Sunday in a friendly preparation having many changes in its lineup, it prevailed over Uzbekistan 2-1.

Greece is playing its last card today to remain in the qualifying round, but its image on Sunday in Kosovo, as well as in all its matches in the group, was miserable. What can change in a few days? probably nothing… Sweden is superior and of course more serious team has the first and last reason for the victory and with the psychology at the top they can leave with a three-pointer from an empty and lifeless OAKA.

Proposal: Greece - Sweden 2 with odds of 2.50 from Stoiximan
