Leaves with discomfort
Gudmundsson recorded 65 minutes of play in Sunday's match against Tunisia but was unable to stay on the pitch due to an apparent physical issue.
Analysis: Gudmundsson made his comeback from an illness and got involved in both attacking and defensive actions with two crosses (one accurate), five clearances and two tackles (one won) Sunday. However, he asked to be subbed off, leaving doubts about whether he was dealing with a muscular problem or a mere fatigue. The wing-back could once again be questionable for Sweden's second game of the tournament against the Netherlands. If an injury is confirmed, Elliot Stroud and Daniel Svensson will be the main candidates to fill in.
Starting Sunday
Gudmundsson (illness) is in the initial lineup for Sunday's clash against Tunisia.
Analysis: Gudmundsson is ready to play as expected after recovering from his ailment a few days prior to the match. He'll consequently feature on the left flank, with Alexander Bernhardsson operating on the opposite flank and Daniel Svensson waiting for an opportunity off the bench. The Leeds United defender should have reasonable attacking upside in his current wing-back role, although he's yet to record a goal contribution over 23 appearances for the national team.
