Women’s Euro 2025 Sweden vs England Bet Builder & Predictions
Sweden vs England takes centre stage at UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 on Thursday night in Zurich, with both giants vying for a spot in the last four. Our Bet Builder features England to Win (1/1), Over 2.5 Goals (1/1), and Both Teams to Score – Yes (3/4).
England arrive as Group D runners-up, rebounding emphatically from an early defeat to France to thrash both the Netherlands (4-0) and Wales (6-1). The Lionesses have hit 11 goals in three matches and boast one of the best scoring averages in the competition.
Sweden swept Group C with a perfect record, notching up wins over Denmark (1-0), Poland (3-0), and a statement 4-1 triumph against Germany. Their blend of resilience and firepower makes them formidable, with only one goal conceded in the group stage.
England to Win (1/1)
Research: – England have hit top form at precisely the right time, recovering from an opening setback to dismantle both Wales and the Netherlands. Sarina Wiegman’s side have now scored at least four goals in back-to-back matches, with multiple threats: Ella Toone (2 goals, 2 assists), Lauren Hemp, and Alessia Russo all peaking for the knockouts.
Although Sweden are unbeaten in their last 15 and pose a serious challenge, England’s recent head-to-head edge, most recently a 4-0 semi-final win at Euro 2022, bolsters their credentials. Both meetings in 2024 ended as draws, but this time, with the attacking momentum the Lionesses are carrying, they look well-placed to edge a classic contest.
Over 2.5 Goals (1/1)
Research: These powerhouses have been among the tournament’s most prolific sides: England average 3.67 goals per game, Sweden 2.67. Both have showcased devastating attacking phases—Sweden’s rout of Germany and England’s 6-1 demolition of Wales stand out.
Defensive lapses have occurred (England conceded early to France; Sweden shipped an early goal to Germany), and with two flexible, attack-minded managers, an open contest looks the likeliest scenario. Each of England’s last two matches has cleared this line by half-time, and with Sweden’s front three in top form, expect another high-scoring affair.
Both Teams to Score – Yes (3/4)
Research: Sweden and England are both fresh from one-sided wins but have also shown moments of vulnerability at the back. Sweden finally conceded to Germany, while England failed to keep clean sheets against France and Wales.
Both teams have struck in 13 of their last 15 matches combined, and history in tournament knockout games points to neither sitting back for long, particularly with the likes of Blackstenius for Sweden and Russo for England driving relentless attacks.
Expect plenty of chances and at least one goal each.
Injuries & Team News
Sweden: Gerhardsson’s Sweden report a clean bill of health, with Blackstenius (2 goals), Lina Hurtig (2 goals), and Asllani (1 goal, 3 assists) spearheading a potent attack. Defensive leader Magdalena Eriksson has returned to top form, while keeper Falk has impressed. The midfield core offers both steel and creativity.
England: No fresh injury worries for Wiegman, who is expected to stick with the in-form forward trio of Hemp, Russo, and James, with Ella Toone in the advanced midfield role. Beth Mead netted her first of the tournament against Wales, further deepening England’s attacking options. Defensively, captain Leah Williamson leads a backline now gelling after an early setback against France.
