After earning a 1-0 victory over Slovakia, Sweden go into matchday three with one foot in the round of 16. Emile Forsberg made it possible with a second half strike from the penalty spot.
Poland, in comparison, need nothing less than a victory to stand a chance of making it to the knockout stages. A strike from Robert Lewandowski levelled matters against Spain after Alvaro Morata broke the deadlock on matchday two.
The Eagles are currently bottom of group E with just a point whilst Sweden are top with four points.
