Freddie boost for Sweden

Freddie Ljungberg should feature for Sweden this weekend.

The Arsenal star has been battling back from a calf injury, and his return is a huge boost to Sweden as they take on Bulgaria in a crucial World Cup qualifier.

"As it looks now, I will be able to play," Ljungberg told Expressen.

"I believe that I can cope with a full 90 minutes."

Sweden's team doctor, Anders Valentin, revealed that the 28-year-old had made great strides in a week.

"It looks good, even better than on Wednesday," said Valentin.

"He can stand a lot of pain."
