Japan is heading into this World Cup match in solid shape. They recently picked up a big win, scoring four goals, and have been having no trouble finding the back of the net overall. Sweden, on the other hand, is really struggling right now, having lost their last two matches and conceding five goals in each of those games. That’s a rough patch, and it’s hard to see them turning things around quickly.

Given Japan’s strong form and Sweden’s recent defensive problems, this match looks far from even. Japan is in much better condition and should have the upper hand. The most likely outcome is a win for Japan in a game that could see quite a few goals.
