What channel is Netherlands v Sweden Women's Euro 2022 match on? Kick off time and live stream details
Check out how to watch Netherlands v Sweden in the Women's Euro 2022 this week, including TV details, team news, predictions and odds.
Two heavyweights of the international game meet at Bramall Lane on Saturday as Netherlands and Sweden open their Women's Euro 2022 campaigns.
Expectations are high for both, particularly the Oranje, as they head into the tournament as reigning European champions.
Sweden were the inaugural winners of this competition in 1984 but have not got their hands on the silverware since, and after near misses at both the 2019 World Cup and 2021 Olympics, they may feel as if they can get over the line this time.
The pair are the favourites to qualify from Group C, which also includes a Switzerland side capable of causing a shock and Portugal, and the winner of this opening fixture should be well placed to finish top of the table.
That should make Saturday night's game in Sheffield a fantastic contest, with the two big hitters hoping to make a strong start to their tournament.

Our prediction: Netherlands v Sweden
It would be a massive momentum boost for either team to claim such a big scalp early on, but neither coach will want to start with a defeat.
That could mean that Bramall Lane plays host to a bit of a cagey game and a low-scoring one, despite one of the best forwards in the history of the game, Vivianne Miedema, being involved.
Sweden's last defeat in normal time was their loss to the Netherlands in the 2019 World Cup and that record may well extend beyond Saturday, with this one too tight to call.
Our prediction: Netherlands 1-1 Sweden (5/1 at Bet365)
