Sweden and Ukraine will close a frenetic round of 16 at Euro 2020 in Glasgow with a place in the quarter-finals on the line.
The Swedes enter the game as favorites after an unlikely first place in Group D thanks to wins over Slovakia and Poland and an impressive draw against Spain in the first stage of the group.
Sweden are led by RB Leipzig winger Emil Forsberg, who scored three of the team’s four goals in the tournament after two goals against Poland. Forsberg was cleared for the round of 16 match after missing training over the weekend as a precaution due to fitness issues.

Ukraine have only won once in their last eight European games, but that group stage win against North Macedonia and a favorable goal difference was enough to earn last place in the third-party qualifiers.
Ukraine have won three of four fights between the two teams, with current manager Andriy Shevchenko scoring twice in their last game against Sweden at Euro 2012. Tuesday’s winner will face England or Germany in the quarterfinals final in Rome.
