PRIMARY PREDICTION

Viktor Gyökeres-to-Alexander Isak goal prediction

Our estimate is 11%. The route is a quick Viktor Gyökeres release before the Dutch centre-backs can set, but the Netherlands can break the partnership by denying him time to turn.

The Netherlands may deny Viktor Gyökeres time to turn, forcing Sweden to use wide deliveries or second balls instead of a direct Viktor Gyökeres-to-Alexander Isak action.

  • Alexander Isak is fit again and scored in Sweden's opening match.
  • His movement between Virgil van Dijk and the adjacent centre-back gives Sweden a direct route through the Dutch line.
  • Sweden can create chances without long spells of possession because Viktor Gyökeres can carry or release the final pass.
Who is the first-goal pick?Nabivo's first-goal pick is Alexander Isak, with a 17% estimated chance to score first.
  • Sweden attacked early and vertically in the opening game.
  • Alexander Isak is the forward most likely to receive the first clean pass behind the Dutch defence.
Who is the dark horse scorer?Crysencio Summerville is Nabivo's dark horse scorer for Netherlands vs Sweden, with a 14% estimated chance to score.
  • He scored against Japan and attacks the space created when the Dutch centre-forward drops.
  • Sweden's narrow front line can leave him isolated against a full-back.
Our readSweden's opening scoreline was emphatic, but the more important detail was how quickly Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyökeres found each other. The Netherlands should own more of the ball. Sweden only need that partnership to work once.
What was Nabivo’s original pre-match lineup expectation?Original pre-match lineup note: Expected to start as one of Sweden's two central forwards; official lineups remain unconfirmed.
What is Nabivo's bold prediction?Alexander Isak scores again, but the Netherlands avoid defeat.
