Tactical analysis
Expect a cagey opening 30 minutes with Netherlands controlling [score withheld]% possession. Sweden is likely to sit in a mid-block, looking for transition opportunities. Goal timing is projected for the late second half as fatigue impacts defensive discipline. Set-pieces will be high-value given the lack of open-play rhythm.
