Their goal difference of +4 over the last six matches highlights their overall positive performance. Interestingly, Sweden experienced a brief dip in form with back-to-back losses in international friendlies against Serbia and Denmark, but they've since bounced back strongly with three wins and a draw in their subsequent four matches. The standout result was their commanding 3-0 victory over Estonia, which they achieved both home and away.

The team have demonstrated a solid attacking prowess, netting 10 goals in their last six matches, averaging 1.67 goals per game. Defensively, they've been relatively sturdy, conceding only six goals in this period and keeping two clean sheets. An interesting statistic is that both teams have scored in 67% of these matches, indicating that while Slovakia are finding the net consistently, they're also prone to conceding.
