Ukraine predicted lineup vs Sweden - Euro 2020
By Tom Gott
Having scraped through the group stage by the skin of their teeth, Ukraine have been handed one of the kinder last-16 draws in the shape of a meeting with Sweden.
We've seen real glimpses of quality from Ukraine this summer. They gave the Netherlands a real scare and were only narrowly beaten by Austria. They're better than their results might suggest.
Here's how Andriy Shevchenko could set his team up for the last 16.
1. Goalkeeper & Defenders
Georgiy Bushchan (GK) - One of Ukraine's stars so far, Bushchan has been impressing on social media with some impressive penalty taking this week.
Oleksandr Karavaev (RB) - Karavaev has played every minute of the tournament so far, keeping Dynamo Kyiv team-mate Oleksandr Tymchyk out of the picture.
Ilya Zabarnyi (CB) - Heavily linked with Chelsea in the past few weeks, keep a close eye on Zabarnyi and you'll see what all the hype is about.
Mykola Matvienko (CB) - Another regular target for the big teams, Matvienko has enjoyed a solid tournament so far and will definitely have added some fuel to the rumour fire.
Vitaliy Mykolenko (LB) - Completing the transfer target trifecta at the back is young Mykolenko, who is yet to really show his true quality but is capable of the spectacular.
2. Midfielders
Sergiy Sydorchuk (DM) - Shevchenko has rotated between Sydorchuk and Taras Stepanenko for the DM role, with the former usually winning the selection battle.
Oleksandr Zinchenko (CM) - Zinchenko gets more freedom in this Ukraine side than he does with Man City, but he's still asked to put in the dirty work as well.
Ruslan Malinovskyi (CM) - Malinovskyi has spent time on the wing this summer but should be returned to the central role in which he dominated for Atalanta towards the end of the season.
3. Forwards
Andriy Yarmolenko (RW) - Yarmolenko has already played 250 minutes this summer, compared to 362 minutes in the entire of last season's Premier League. If this one goes to extra-time, he could overtake his tally.
Roman Yaremchuk (ST) - One of the best strikers outside of Europe's top-five leagues, expect to see Yaremchuk's name in the rumour mill in the very near future.
Viktor Tsygankov (LW) - Having stepped up his involvement over the last two games, it could be time to give Tsygankov his first start of the summer.
