In Group C1 of the Nations League, Sweden and Slovakia are locked on 10 points so there is everything to play for when the teams face off on Saturday.

Last time out, Sweden beat Estonia 3-0 away, while Slovakia beat Azerbaijan 3-1 away.

Here's how the squads are shaping up.

Sweden Team News

Sweden will be without Hugo Larsson, Emil Krafth and Hugo Bolin due to injury.

Crucially, their influential attacking trio of Viktor Gyokeres, Alexander Isak and Dejan Kulusevski are all fit.

Last Sweden Lineup

Here's how Sweden lined up against Estonia.

(3-5-2): Johansson; Douglas, Hien, Gudmundsson; Krafth, Ayari, Saletros, Sanasi, Sema; Kulusevski, Gyokeres

Slovakia Team News

Slovakia have been boosted by the return of Stanislav Lobotka from injury, but the midfielder has yet to receive a start at Napoli since recovering so might not be match fit.

Lukas Haraslin and Juraj Kucka are injured, though Ivan Schranz is back in the fold.

Schranz hasn't played a lot of football this season, but with Haraslin out, he'll be thrown straight back into the mix.

(4-3-3): Rodak; Pekarik, Satka, Skriniar, Hancko; Duda, Lobokta, Benes; Suslov, Strelec, Haraslin
