Sweden to host Bosnia & Herzegovina at Friends Arena in UEFA Nations League on November 14
Sweden will entertain Bosnia & Herzegovina at Friends Arena in Solna on November 14 in their fifth group-stage match of the UEFA Nations League 2026-27.
Sweden sit in League B and have won three of their opening four fixtures, remaining unbeaten in the campaign and in a position to press for promotion to League A; the game at home gives Graham Potter’s side a chance to maintain that run. The Swedish squad are reported to be fully fit for the fixture.
Bosnia & Herzegovina have also gone through the Nations League campaign without defeat, securing two wins from four matches and keeping their promotion hopes alive; the side led by Sergej Barbarez drew 1-1 with Sweden in their previous meeting. Playing away is noted in the preview as an added challenge for Bosnia.
Alexander Isak has scored in back-to-back matches for Liverpool and is expected to lead Sweden’s attack alongside Viktor Gyokeres. Esmir Bajraktarevic, described in the preview as 21 years old, can operate in midfield or up front — as a winger or striker — and the article says he is capable of scoring goals and that his ability to create important plays makes him dangerous.
Squad availability for Bosnia includes the suspension of Tarik Muharemovic, while Dennis Hadzikadunic might miss out due to a lack of fitness. The preview lists likely lineups for the match: Sweden — Johansson (GK); Svensson, Ekdal, Lindelof, Gudmundsson; Elanga, Ayari, Karlstrom, Nanasi; Isak, Gyokeres. Bosnia & Herzegovina — Hamzic (GK); Malic, Katic, Mujakic, Kolasinac; Bajraktarevic, Basic, Gigovic, Alajbegovic; Demirovic, Lukic.
Sergej Barbarez announced a 26-man squad for Bosnia’s November Nations League fixtures against Sweden and Romania, with Bosnia scheduled to visit Sweden in Solna on November 14 and to host Romania in Zenica three days later. Sweden’s published schedule in a related post also shows a match in Wroclaw against Poland on November 17.
The Friends Arena fixture on November 14 will be shown in India on Sony Sports Network and SonyLIV; in the UK on Prime Video UK for matches not involving the home nations; in Bosnia and Herzegovina on MY TV, Radio and Television of Bosnia and Herzegovina – BHRT, and Arena Sport; and in the USA on FOX Sports, FuboTV and ViX. Sweden travel to Wroclaw to face Poland on November 17, while Bosnia host Romania in Zenica on November 17.
