The 2026 IIHF World Championship quarter-finals will conclude with Switzerland taking on Sweden on Thursday evening. La Nati have a perfect record in the competition, and our prediction is that they will be too good for Tre Kronor in this clash.
Switzerland have been the benchmark in this year’s World Championship, having won all seven of their games and ending the group stage with the most goals scored (39) and fewest conceded (7).
Notably, La Nati have not conceded a single goal in the first period in this competition. Sven Andrighetto is the most productive player in the tournament to date with 13 points (G4 A9).
The Swiss have won nine of their last 10 matches in all competitions, but are winless in their last five against their upcoming opponents.
Meanwhile, Sweden were disappointing in the group stage but managed to avoid an unexpected early elimination by beating Slovakia 4-2 in their last game to clinch fourth place.
Tre Kronor have only won one third period in their seven matches in the competition. Lucas Raymond leads the team with 11 points (G5 A6), followed by Oliver Ekman-Larsson (G3 A5).
The Swiss are 5-5 in their last 10 matches in all competitions. They have not lost a competitive match against this opponent in normal time since April 2016.

Our Switzerland vs Sweden Prediction
Sweden were among the most fancied teams to reach the quarter-finals at the start of the World Championships. While they have managed to return for their backers, they have been far from convincing, having only snuck into the last eight in their final game of the group stage.
In contrast, Switzerland have looked almost unstoppable at times in this competition, unbeaten in seven, while holding the best offensive and defensive records. With home support, we fancy La Nati to end their winless streak against this opponent. Our Switzerland vs Sweden prediction is Switzerland wins.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
