Sweden lead Group B of the FIFA World Cup qualifiers and they want to maintain that after their game in Georgia on Thursday.

The Swedes have 15 points from six games and will strengthen their chances of getting outright qualification if they can replicate their 1-0 win over Georgia at Solna last March. Viktor Claesson scored for Sweden, who have won their last five games including friendlies.

The Blagult beat Greece 2-0 in Solna in their previous game where Emil Forsberg and Alexander Isak netted goals.

Ken Sema will not play in this game due to injury while Albin Ekdal is suspended. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is in Janne Andersson's line-up.

Georgia are just out to end their group campaign on a bright note. Willy Sagnol's side have four points and have no hope of entering next year's World Cup in Qatar.

The Georgians beat Kosovo 2-1 in Pristina in their last game to get their first win. Tornike Okriashvili and Zuriko Davitashvili scored for the Georgians in that contest.

Guram Giorbelidze and Lasha Dvali are suspended for this game while Jaba Kankava returns from suspension.
