The Swedes lost out in a shootout to Russian Olympic Committee while the Slovaks were felled by Finland. Slovakia have now lost half of their matches at the Games and while they are capable of winning this, Sweden have defeated them on five consecutive occasions including during the group stage so the Swedes have to be favoured.
