The UEFA Women's Euro 2025 Group C match between Poland and Sweden is set to take place on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, at the Swissporarena in Lucerne, Switzerland. The game kicks off at 9 PM CEST (8 PM UK time).

For fans in the UK, the match will be broadcast live on BBC One and available for streaming on BBC iPlayer. Radio coverage will be available on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra, accessible on DAB radio, MW 693 kHz, 909 kHz and 990 kHz, and online via the BBC website or BBC Sounds app.

This match is crucial for both teams. Poland, making their debut in the Euros, are looking to rebound from a 2-0 defeat against Germany. A loss against Sweden, combined with a favorable result for Germany against Denmark, would eliminate Poland from quarter-final contention. Sweden, on the other hand, can secure a quarter-final spot with a victory, provided Denmark doesn't beat Germany. Sweden defeated Denmark in their opening match, with Filippa Angeldahl scoring the decisive goal in the 55th minute.

Sweden has a strong historical record against Poland, winning all four of their previous encounters in UEFA Women's Euro qualifying phases. In those matches, Sweden has scored 13 goals while conceding only one. Sweden is considered the favorite.

Poland's coach, Nina Patalon, acknowledges Sweden's tactical and physical strengths, emphasizing the need for vigilance during set-pieces. Sweden's coach, Peter Gerhardsson, has expressed respect for Poland's performance against Germany and highlighted Ewa Pajor as a key player to watch.

Both teams have key players to watch. Poland's captain, Ewa Pajor, is a highly regarded player. Sweden's squad includes Stina Blackstenius and Hanna Bennison. Veteran players such as Jonna Andersson, Linda Sembrant, Magdalena Eriksson, Kosovare Asllani, Sofia Jakobsson, and Amanda Ilestedt bring experience to the Swedish side. Fridolina Rolfo has returned to full training for Sweden, though her participation in the match remains uncertain. Paulina Dudek is doubtful for Poland due to an injury.

Poland's possible starting lineup is Szemik; Matysik, Szymczak, Woś, Wiankowska; Achcińska, Pawollek, Grabowska; Krezyman, Pajor, and Tomasiak. The possible starting lineup for Sweden is Falk; Lundkvist, Björn, Ilestedt, Nildén; Angeldahl, Asllani, Zigiotti Olme; Rytting Kaneryd, Blackstenius, and Janogy.
