On Saturday, Sweden will face France at Friends Arena.

Then some of the world's top football players await, such as Kylian Mbappé (PSG), Anthony Martial (Manchester United) and Antoine Griezmann (Barcelona).

But defenders Ludwig Augustinsson and Sebastian Holmén are not afraid of the star-studded opposition.

- You can not enter a football field and be afraid of the opposition, then you have already lost in advance.

This is a level I have not really been at before so I look forward to this and to get some playing time, says Holmén at Wednesday's press conference.

"We can handle the stars"

Augustinsson, who plays for Werder Bremen in Germany on a daily basis, has experience from the Bundesliga of meeting, for example, Lucas Hernández (Bayern Munich) and Dayot Upamecano (Leipzig).

- We know which world players they have and it will be a hell of a task for the whole team.

They have many skilled players, especially offensively, so it is important that we sharpen the form these days so that we are with.

And a few days later it will be Ronaldo and the others in Portugal?

- Yes, but we have played well against big teams before.

We met France a few years ago and did well, we can handle these stars in a good way.

We have had the right measure of respect, says Augustinsson.
