Taking over from the long-standing Janne Andersson, who resigned following Sweden's inability to qualify for Euro 2024, former Blackburn Rovers manager Jon Dahl Tomasson faced a tough introduction to international management.

On his debut as manager, Sweden encountered the formidable force of Portugal in Guimaraes on Thursday evening. Despite Viktor Gyokeres breaking Portugal's clean sheet, goals from Rafael Leao, Matheus Nunes, Bruno Fernandes, and Bruma secured an insurmountable lead for the Selecao.While the players of Sweden will be watching Euro 2024 from their homes, Albania has secured their second appearance at the continental competition. This unexpected achievement came from clinching the top spot in Group E, edging out the Czech Republic on goal difference.

The Eagles took advantage of Poland's struggles to secure their first-ever first-place finish in a Euros qualifying group. Following an initial 1-0 defeat to Poland, Albania went on an impressive seven-game unbeaten streak. Their triumph over the Czechs was sealed by a superior head-to-head record.


Prediction: Sweden 4-0 Albania
