After today's training in Doha, he nailed the elf that starts against Moldova on Thursday night. It will be this team in this year's first international match:

Pontus Dahlberg - Joel Andersson, Anel Ahmedhodzic, Marcus Danielson, Adam Andersson - Daleho Irandust, Gustav Berggren, Darijan Bojanic, Jesper Karlsson - Jordan Larsson, Dino Islamovic.

- I hope it will be a competition character at the match, says the league captain to TV4's Football Channel.

Untutored bunch

It is an inexperienced team Andersson is betting on. Djurgården's team captain Marcus Danielson is one of the few who has been in the past - and then the center-back debuted in the national team as late as last fall.

Danielson went straight into the starting eleven in the European Championship qualifier against Malta and began his national team career by becoming a goal scorer directly.

Dream scenario: EM

Spartak Moscow striker Jordan Larsson joined the national team's winter tour 2018. Since then he has left IFK Norrköping for Spartak Moscow in the Russian league. Larsson is investing in a place in this summer's European Championship squad.

- I know there is a lot at stake. I will go out and give everything. But I don't feel pressure. In my situation, I just focus on doing as best I can at this camp and then as good as I can at Spartak. What happens in the summer, we will see. The dream scenario would of course have been selected for the European Championships, but there are many good strikers and that can happen a lot until the summer. We will see, I do not have too high hopes, he says to TV4's Football Channel.

Robin Söder has been contracted with mild hip discomfort and Jacob Une Larsson has felt awkward.

- Otherwise everyone is whole and healthy and we can, as it seems now, set up with two different rivers. I hope it holds so we can see all the players, says Janne Andersson.

Not pondering

Andersson has not had any major pondering about how he matches the players in the two international matches in Qatar.

- Not really any more than that we divide it straight. It's hard to know in advance which of these matches will be the toughest. There are two, which I think, fairly even teams. There is no A or B. The only thing that is different is the goalkeeper side where I think Pontus should get a whole match, says the league captain.
