Sweden have made three changes to their side for Saturday's Euro 2016 qualifying playoff first leg against Scandinavian rivals Denmark.

Sunderland midfielder Sebastian Larsson is absent from the starting XI which beat Moldova 2-0 in the final Group G match on October 12, with Olympiacos's Jimmy Durmaz instead preferred on the wing.

Former Manchester City striker John Guidetti is also dropped along with Erkan Zengin, as Emil Forsberg and Marcus Berg come into the attack.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic unsurprisingly leads the line for Erik Hamren's side as they look to keep up their record of qualifying for every European Championships side 1996.

For the visitors, Nicklas Bendtner starts in attack ahead of Christian Eriksen and Ajax forward Viktor Fischer, while Thomas Kahlenberg is recalled to midfield in place of Michael Krohn-Deli.

Sweden: Isaksson; Lustig, Granqvist, Antonsson, Olsson; Lewicki, Kallstrom, Durmaz, Forsberg; Ibrahimovic, Berg

Denmark: Schmeichel; Jacobsen, Kjaer, Agger, Durmisi; Kvist, Braithwaite, Kahlenberg; Eriksen, Fischer; Bendtner
