Sweden face Croatia in their final main round match in the 2022 Women's European Handball Championships. They are third in the group but only a win wlll keep them in with a chance of making the semi-finals. If they do win, then there's an anxious wait to see how group leaders Norway get on against second placed Denmark. All Sweden can do is go out and try to win this match. They have four points in this group, two behind Denmark with Norway having already made it into the last four. Sweden finished top of their preliminary group (though they lost to Denmark) and in the main round narrowly lost to Norway but then beat Hungary. 

Croatia are fifth of the six teams in this group. They can't reach the last four but could still finish third and go into the fiifth/sixth place play-off. However, that's unlikely as they'd need Slovenia to lose to Hungary and they would need to beat the Swedes by at least 10 goals and that doesn't look at all likely. Croatia finished second in their preliminary round group but only won one of their three games. In this main round group they have lost to both Slovenia and Denmark. Sweden are very short odds to win this game, for decent odds, go for under 52.5 goals in the match.
