Team news

Zlatan Ibrahimovic will not be the only man missing out for Sweden in this one.

Two star centre-backs will be out due to fixture clashes.

Victor Lindelof is recovering from Man Utd’s Europa League final defeat to Villarreal while Pontus Jansson is playing for Brentford in the Championship play-off final.

That means Rangers’ Filip Helander could partner Joakim Nilsson at the back.

Jansson’s Brentford team-mate Marcus Forss will also be occupied with the play-off final so will miss out for Finland.

But Teemu Pukki is set to lead the line after guiding Brentford to promotion.
