England vs Sweden Prediction
If history is any indication, Sweden should be able to emerge triumphant here. Nonetheless, in sports, the current form is the most important factor, and there are very few teams in better form than the Lionesses in women's football at the moment.
They are on a ten-game winning streak, and in four games in the competition have scored 16 goals and conceded just once. Sweden have also enjoyed a solid run, scoring nine goals and conceding twice in the four games thus far.
Both teams secured nervy wins in the quarter-finals, scoring late winners, so another closely contested affair determined in extra time could esnue. The home support will rally behind England, who could win this one.
Prediction: England 2-1 Sweden.
