Trinidad & Tobago v Sweden: Sweden may have had their problems - most notably when beaten 3-0 by Ireland in a Dublin friendly in March - but Trinidad and Tobago are probably just what the doctor ordered.
Even allowing for the fact they are coached by experienced Dutchman Leo Beenhakker, it is hard to make a case for them against Sweden, one of Europe's most consistent sides of the last decade.
Swedish preparations were probably not helped by a bizarre training accident in mid-week when Rennes midfielder Karl Kallstrom struck his former club team-mate, goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson, in the face at point-blank range with a fierce shot that knocked him out. Isaksson will be replaced by either Rami Shaaban of Norwegian club Friedrikstad or John Alvbage of Danish club Viborg, both very inexperienced.
Despite those problems, a Swedish side that can call on an attacking front line of Zlatan Ibrahimovic of Juventus, Henrik Larsson of Barcelona and Freddie Ljungberg of Arsenal should prove too strong for a Trinidad team led by one-time Manchester United Champions League-winner Dwight Yorke. At 34, and without much club football this season, Yorke now plays in midfield where his experience and craft, allied to Beenhakker's coaching, offer Trinidad some (slight) hope.
