They start for Sweden – Gustafson in the middle

Gustafson and Sema are the only players who differ from the eleven that played a half against Belgium in October.

The team against Azerbaijan:

Robin Olsen – Linus Wahlqvist Egnell, Filip Helander, Victor Nilsson Lindelöf, Ken Sema – Mattias Svanberg, Jens Cajuste, Samuel Gustafson, Emil Forsberg – Dejan Kulusevski, Viktor Gyökeres.

Jens Cajuste continues to gain confidence in central midfield.

“Cajuste has grown during the qualifiers and I hope he gets more and more playing time in his club team (Napoli) because then Swedish football has a really good midfielder going forward. He has done well before and played with Albin (Ekdal) and Samuel (Gustafson ). Today I choose Samuel, partly based on how we want to act when we have the ball. There, Samuel gets a key role, he is very skilled in that game. I also don’t see Albin (Ekdal) being able to play two games in four days “, says Janne Andersson to the football ban’s website.
