The Swedish national team has had a bit of a losing streak recently, with the Yellow-blues not reaching the semifinals at four world championships in a row. They broke that run last year by winning bronze medals, but they're clearly not going to settle for that at their home World Cup in 2025. They've got a really strong squad for this one, and it got even stronger as the tournament went on with Rasmus Sandin, William Karlsson and William Nylander joining.
Tre Kronor started the 2025 World Cup in great form, with a 6-match winning streak. They beat the Slovaks 5-0, the Austrians 4-2, the Finns 2-1, the Latvians 6-0, the Slovenes 4-0, and the French 4-0. In the last game, the Swedes lost to the Canadians 3-5, but that didn't stop them from finishing top of Group A. In the quarterfinals of the World Championship, Sam Hallam's team faced the Czechs and beat the reigning world champions 5-2.
USA
USA is giving it another shot at the World Championship final, where they haven't been since 1960. During this time, the Americans have tried out various squad members, inviting in stars, students and experienced players, but they've never made it past the semi-finals. At the 2024 FIFA World Cup, the Stars and Stripes were knocked out in the quarterfinals after losing to the Czechs 0-1.
And now the Americans have a shot at the decisive match at the World Championship for the first time in 65 years. Ryan Warsofsky's wards did really well in the group stage of the tournament. They lost only to the Swiss 0-3, but beat the Danes 5-0, the Hungarians 6-0, the Norwegians 6-5, the Germans 6-3, the Kazakhs 6-1, and the Czechs 5-2. That was enough to get second place in the Group B standings. In the quarterfinals, the Stars and Stripes faced the Finns and had no problems at all – 5-2.

Sweden vs USA Match Prediction 24 May 2025
Any series sooner or later ends, but the Americans don't seem to realise it. The last time they made it to the final was back in 1960 at the World Cup, and after that, they just got stopped at the semifinal. They've brought some of the best players to the World Cup, but they've never quite made it to the final. At the 2025 World Cup, the Stars and Stripes have a pretty good team, but the Tre Kronor have a much more experienced and skilful squad. It's not a huge shock, really. This is a home championship for the Yellow-Blues, so it's super important to perform well.
The match between Sweden and the USA at the World Championships is pretty efficient. In eight previous head-to-head meetings, the rivals have scored 57 pucks (7.13 per game on average) - a solid indicator, and in seven cases out of eight each team scored at least two pucks, and also reached the TO. At the 2025 World Cup, the Yellow-Blues and the Stars and Stripes are also doing well on the offense.
