The National Team: Nanasi and Krafth in the Starting Lineup

Sebastian Nanasi gets the chance from the start in tonight's meeting with Estonia in the Nations League. Emil Krafth also goes into the starting eleven. "Sebbe" has knocked on the door and I think it's time to give him the chance, says national team captain Jon Dahl Tomasson.

Here is his squad from the start at 20.45: Viktor Johansson – Alex Douglas, Isak Hien, Gabriel Gudmundsson – Emil Krafth, Yasin Ayari, Anton Salétros, Dejan Kulusevski, Sebastian Nanasi, Ken Sema – Viktor Gyökeres.

Tomasson makes two changes from the eleven who started against Slovakia in Bratislava on Friday.

Out go Jesper Karlström and Niclas Eliasson.

Sebastian Nanasi has had a successful start in Strasbourg in the French league since the transfer from Malmö FF last summer. After three goals and two assists in five matches for the club, the 22-year-old was named player of the month.

About Krafth on the wing in a five-man midfield, Jon Dahl Tomasson says to the association's website:

"Emil hasn't played wingback in a while, but he's an experienced player and will bring a lot of energy to that role".

Lucas Bergvall is injured and misses the international match.

"Lucas is going back to his club Tottenham. He would have liked to be part of the team tonight and gained more experience, but he's a young talented player who will get a lot of matches in the years to come", says Jon Dahl Tomasson.
