It was long unknown whether and what Finnkampen in Tampere would look like.

Due to the pandemic, the Swedish team is forced to spend the night in Sweden, but there will be competitions - in front of a limited audience of up to 5,000 people.

The Swedish national team will fly back and forth both on Friday and Saturday.

The Swedes also have isolated spaces in the stadium.

All Swedish participants must also be tested no more than 72 hours before the competition.

- But apart from the trips and the smaller audience, it will probably be pretty normal, says Jacob Hård who will comment on the broadcasts on SVT.

- I think it's going to be fun.

The Swedish team is a fun mix of established stars and an unusual number of newcomers who broke through already at the Swedish Championships.

An exciting meeting between generations.

Of course, the expected highlights are not difficult for Jacob Hård to pick out:

1. Daniel Ståhl, discus.


- Every time Daniel Ståhl throws, there is a world result and chances of at least a Swedish record.

2. Thobias Montler, Kaddhi Sagnia, long jump.


- They are there and sniff at really good results in every competition.

3. Angelica Bengtsson, stav.


- What a competition skull she has.

Won the Diamond League competition on Wednesday and would very much like to have his Swedish record back.

4. The young.


- Sweden has many young promising and exciting athletes.

Not least in the ladies' sprint, with Nikki Anderberg in the 100 meters.

Finland then?

- They do not have a big star in athletics, right now, but they have a good team.

A broad elite.

A bit like Sweden.

That is why it becomes a struggle every year.

How does Finnkampen end? - Sweden are favorites to win both the men's and women's match.

But nothing is obvious.
