Personal meetings of the opponents

When preparing a prediction for Sweden - USA, it is worth paying attention to the past meetings. Last year, the teams met once. The confrontation took place in May in the group stage of the World Cup and ended with the triumph of the Americans in overtime with a score of 3:2.

Sweden Review

When making a prediction for Sweden, it is worth noting that the team has secured an early playoff spot and will not drop below second place. In six rounds Halm's charges have scored 17 points and the lag from the leader of Group A, the U.S. team, is one point. The Swedes are showing quite a powerful game on offense, but without loosing quality in the game on defense - the difference between goals scored and conceded is +20 (23:3). It should be noted that defenseman Henrik Temmernes and forward Lucas Raymond showed a good game - the hockey players scored 15 points on "goal + pass" system (2+13).

USA Review

When making a prediction on the U.S., consider that the team is the leader of Group A, scoring the maximum points in six appearances. The Americans show an aggressive attacking game, and in the last performance they defeated the French with the score 9:0. In addition, in that game Quinn gave 20-year-old Drew Commesso an opportunity to play in goal after the score was 7-0. It should be noted that Rocco Grimaldi is among the top 5 scorers with eight points (4+4) and the best in goals is 19-year-old Cutter Gauthier (6).

In the final part of the prediction for Sweden - USA we should pay attention to the opinion of bookmakers - the favorites are the hosts of the ice. Both teams are already in the playoffs, so the coaches are likely to save their leaders and try new combinations. This could lead to both completely close hockey and high performance. We think, nevertheless, that the sides will prefer to please the public with a beautiful game, which will make for a goal-oriented encounter.
