Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the best current player on the planet, according to Sweden coach Erik Hamren.
On Friday night in Lisbon, Ibrahimovic will come face to face with Cristiano Ronaldo as Sweden and Portugal meet in the first leg of their much-anticipated World Cup play-off tie.
Only one of the two super stars can make it to the finals in Brazil next summer and on Thursday afternoon Hamren sought to score an early psychological blow.
'Of course, it’s a fight between these two world class players,' he added.
'Zlatan needs support but if he gets that from the team then he can be the match winner.
'He has been scoring well recently, so that’s good. But so has Ronaldo so maybe their form is pretty even.
'All I know is that Zlatan is in really good shape. He’s feeling strong and that’s good for us.'
