- Sweden have won nine of their last 11 matches against Poland (D1 L1), including each of the last five. The last Polish victory dates back to a home friendly in August 1991 (2-0).
● Sweden and Poland’s only previous encounter at a major tournament came in the second round of the 1974 World Cup; the Poles won 1-0, courtesy of Grzegorz Lato’s solitary goal. Poland finished third – their joint-best performance at a major tournament – and Lato won the Golden Boot (7 goals).
● None of the previous 26 matches between Sweden and Poland have ended goalless.
● Poland have won just one of their last nine matches across all competitions (D4 L4), beating Andorra 3-0 in March. Indeed, Poland’s ongoing five-match winless streak (D3 L2) is their longest since September to November 2018 (six games).
