Key player - Azerbaijan

The players coached by Giani de Biasi mostly play in their local league, but that does not detract from their quality. Musa Qurbanly is a case in point. The 20-year-old center forward plays for Qarabag Agdam in the Azerbaijan Premier League and has 20 goals in 24 games.

Key player - Sweden

Sweden has a great squad. It has several referents in several of the big clubs in Europe and they are characterized by being incredible with the ball. One of them is Dejan Kulusevski, the striker who plays for Tottenham in England and already has two goals and six assists in this Premier League.

Sweden

Stadium

The designated stadium for this match is the Friends Arena in the city of Stockholm, Sweden. Due to sponsorship issues, this sports venue is called STM Swedbank Arena, but everyone knows it as the Friend Arena since the Swedish bank decided to name it that way as a show of support to an NGO called Friends that works against bullying. It is the official home of AIK Stockholm and the Swedish national soccer team. The national team decided to renovate and move from its old stadium Rasunda Stadium in 2013 and since then, Friends Arena hosts its matches. This stadium was inaugurated on October 27, 2012 with an incredible concert that brought together several of Sweden's great artists such as Roxette, Loreen and Agnes Carlsson. The match that opened its doors was a friendly between the Swedish national team and the England national team. It had the honor of hosting the final of the 2013 Women's European Championship and the final of the 2016-17 Europa League, among other events. It has a capacity of 50,622 spectators, making it the largest in the country.
