Decent showing in Tunisia clash
Lindelof (foot) had one off-target shot, one interception and three clearances and won one tackle in Sunday's 5-1 victory over Tunisia.
Analysis: Lindelof was able to start and go to distance after nursing a minor foot problem in recent days and was composed in the back, but Tunisia bagged a goal through a set piece, where most Swedish players were caught ball-watching. Lindelof should be a defensive stalwart the rest of the way. He contributed to four clean sheets in 27 matches (20 starts) with Aston Villa in the past campaign.
Good to go
Lindelof (foot) is available for Sunday's clash with Tunisia, according to manager Graham Potter. "All players are available and ready to play (against Tunisia). I have a pretty clear picture of what the starting eleven will look like and have had it for a while."
Analysis: Lindelof is still dealing with a sprained foot, but it doesn't seem to be a major concern as he's fit and available for the opening clash. Lindelof is expected to start if he's fully fit, and should slot straight in as one of the key presences in central defense. He played a significant role to close the season with Aston Villa, starting the final six matches.
