Preview: Moldova vs. Sweden

Moldova vs. Sweden

Sweden will hope to record just their second win of Euro 2016 qualifying by defeating Group G's bottom side Moldova in Chisinau on Friday evening.

Erik Hamren's side are still unbeaten in qualifying, but have drawn three of their four games to lie second in the group, four points behind leaders Austria.

Paris Saint-Germain superstar Zlatan Ibrahimovic is fit and should lead the line for the visitors.

Moldova, meanwhile, have won just two of their last 11 competitive games at home. Both of those victories were against San Marino and they have lost both of their home Euro 2016 qualifiers so far to Austria and Liechtenstein.

These two sides were in the same group for Euro 2012 qualifying as well, with Sweden triumphing 2-1 at home and 4-1 on their last trip to Chisinau. They also met in a friendly since then last year in Abu Dhabi which Sweden won 2-1 .
