Djurgarden with the round ball looks value

International Football Tips

Football – Sweden – Allsvenskan

Monday 21st July 2014 – Kickoff: 1905hrs

Djurgarden will be looking to extend their unbeaten run in the Allsvenskan to six matches when they host Hacken at their Tele2 Arena on Monday night on the back of away wins at Orebro and Norrkoping along with draws against IFK Gothenborg, Gefle and Elfsborg.

With holding the likes of fourth placed Gothenborg and fifth placed Elfsborg to draws at home recently, Djurgarden will be in confident mood of getting further points against Hacken here tonight especially with the hosts overall home record standing at  2-3-1  9/6.

Djurgarden have lost just once on home turf so far this season and that was to second placed AIK Stockholm but they’ve shown they’re no pushovers as they’ve also held third placed Kalmar to a point in a 0-0 draw too.

In addition, Djurgarden have also kept three clean sheets so they have been well organised at the back which should stand them in good stead for tonight’s encounter.

 

Visitors Hacken have registered two wins in their last six matches in the Allsvenskan but these wins have both come on their home turf (4-1 over Kalmar and a 4-1 win over Orebro), while their away form has been less convincing, particularly in recent weeks.

They’ve now gone three away matches without a win and indeed have picked up just one point which was thanks to a 1-1 draw at Falkenberg, but defeats at Atvidaberg 0-1 and Gefle 0-1 perhaps indicate a soft underbelly on their travels.

Hacken’s overall away record certainly seems to confer this with stats of  2-1-4  10/12 and are still yet to register a clean sheet on the road. In fact, Hacken have kept just two clean sheets from their last sixteen matches away from home.

 

Djurgarden’s recent form has been solid and have grabbed points against some of the top teams in the division so i’m backing them with the round ball tonight against opponents Hacken who have racked up just two away wins from their last fifteen on their travels. Djurgarden could nick this perhaps 2-1.
