England vs. Ukraine will determine a lot, but it's also not out of the question for Sweden to pull off a shocker against France. The Swedes have several key pieces, including striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who have yet to play up to their potential.

In what should be a hotly contested affair, England and Ukraine will battle for one of the two qualifying spots to advance to the quarterfinals.
England, after a 1-1 draw versus France to open the tournament, asserted itself against Sweden on Friday, winning 3-2.
Three different players scored for England in that match: Andy Carroll, Theo Walcott and Danny Welbeck. Welbeck scored the game-deciding goal in the 78th minute, flicking the ball into the net after a magnificent cross from Walcott. Steven Gerrard leads the side with two assists, tied for third in Euro 2012.
As for the host country, Ukraine is coming off a disappointing 2-0 defeat to France after an inspired effort against Sweden to start the tournament. The Ukrainians were in a 0-0 battle before it all fell apart in the second half. Overall, France outshot Ukraine 16-9, with 10 shots on target. Ukraine only managed to place one shot on target.
Captain Andriy Shevchenko is undoubtedly Ukraine's best player, but he is reportedly "50-50" for the match, per Reuters. Given that he already has two goals in the tournament, it may prove difficult for Ukraine to win if he doesn't play.
Prediction: England 2, Ukraine 0
Even if Shevchenko does play, he's not going to be 100 percent. England appeared to get in the swing of things against Sweden, using a team effort to emerge victorious. Shevchenko is the only Ukrainian to have scored in the tournament thus far.

Sweden is already out of contention after two losses, but that doesn't mean the Swedes will lie down against France.
Sweden scored twice against England in its last match, but lost by a score of 3-2. That, of course, was a better effort than the side's opening match against Ukraine.
There are some threats for Sweden, even if they haven't lived up to their billing thus far. Striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic had 28 goals and eight assists in 32 appearances for AC Milan in Serie A this season, but has just one goal in nine chances thus far.
France has looked like the best team in the group thus far. With a 1-1 draw against rival England and an impressive 2-0 shutout against Ukraine, the French defense in particular has been solid.
Striker Karim Benzema, one of France's many weapons, has recorded two assists in the tournament. And don't forget about midfielders Franck Ribery and Samir Nasri.
It would be a shocker if France didn't make it to the quarterfinals, but Ibrahimovic and Co. do have the ability to make this one interesting.
Prediction: France 2, Sweden 1
