Netherlands - Sweden    (lost)

Odds a bit dropped here and there, but still good for my liking. Game will be played on neutral venue - Istanbul. Both teams are tied with 1-1 in group, but for this game I see Dutch side as favorites, well bookies too, but there are reasons for that. Sweden comes to this bubble weakened, without their leader and best player Hakanson, who was instrumental in their only win vs Turkey at home. He is covid positive, so it kept him out and that's a big blow. Other missing is their rising star, big man Birgander from Joventut, he decided to stay with his club. Also there are few other missings, not such big names for their standards, but still important for a such caliber team like Sweden which can't brag about long list of talented players. Meanwhile Dutch side selected almost the best possible line-up, they are well gelled, playing together for years, has very tough defense and in such short windows it might be a key to success as to build offense takes time and for Sweden it will be hell tough task being without their heart and soul Hakanson, who had all the control of the game in his hands. Overall, being with full rosters it would be close call, but now, under all these circumstances, I see Netherlands getting a win and control the game since opening minutes. GL ;)
