Sweden lost when last in action. At Strawberry Arena, they were turned over 2-0 at home to Switzerland. The Blue and Yellow were limited to just 42% possession and, despite fielding star strikers Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyökeres, managed only one shot on target in the World Cup qualifier.

Kosovo drew their previous game. It was a World Cup qualifier played at home at Fadil Vokrri Stadium, where they played out a 0-0 draw against Slovenia. Franco Foda's team didn’t have a lot of the ball with 39% possession and no shots on goal.

Head-to-Head Statistics

It was Kosovo who came out on top when they played Sweden a month ago. At Fadil Vokrri Stadium, a 2-0 home win was recorded. Sweden have triumphed in two of the previous 3 H2H meetings, while Kosovo have won once.
