my understanding is that group crossover won't happen until after the first round, so I believe that after the first round we are mostly likely going to play Sweden with the Swiss running rampant through the pool right now.
it'll be a fun game to watch, against sweden in sweden. I believe this was done so Finland was guaranteed the first playoff match in Finland, then the semis and final are in host sweden this year. (vice versa last year)
