Next, we turn to the second tier in Sweden and a Superettan clash between Dalkurd and Halmstad as the betting tips continue at the Domnarvsvallen ground with the hosts looking to extend their unbeaten run to four matches.
Dalkurd – Can Dalkurd extend unbeaten run to 4 matches?
Dalkurd sit mid-table in 9th place in the Swedish Superettan and although they recorded just 2 wins from their first 8 matches of the new season, the hosts seem to be on the road to recovery as they’ve put together a 3-match unbeaten run in the second tier which has lifted them away from the lower reaches of the division.
The hosts have registered back-to-back wins over Degerfors and Orgryte with 2-1 and 3-2 wins respectively in recent weeks along with a point in a 0-0 draw away at 3rd placed Norrby which would have felt like a victory and these recent results will give the hosts renewed confidence when they prepare for the visit of Halmstad this Sunday afternoon.
It’s been an up and down season so far though for Dalkurd who possess an overall home record which stands at 3-0-2 10/11 which reflects their inconsistent form, but goals have continued to feature where Dalkurd are concerned.
All 5 of Dalkurd’s home matches have resulted in over 2.5 goals, and with midfielders Tranberg, Ceesay and Sabovic (2 goals each) along with forwards Cissoko (3 goals) and Alexandersson (2 goals), the hosts should be amongst the goals again here.
Halmstad Prediction – Can Halmstad move up the table?
Halmstad currently occupy 13th place and the last relegation play-off place in the Swedish second tier ahead of their trip to face Dalkurd on Sunday afternoon on the back of picking up 4 points from their last 2 matches.
A resounding 3-0 home win over Degerfors was followed up with a point against Vasteras in a 0-0 draw with both results being achieved at their Örjans Vall ground, but results away from home have also been up and down so far this term.
Wins at Jonkopings Sodra and Trelleborg have been offset by defeats at Brage, Brommapojkarna and Varberg but the visitors have at least notched 3 goals from their 5 away matches to date, and given Dalkurd’s inconsistent nature, could very well find the back of the net again in this clash.
Indeed, the bigger picture tells us that Halmstad have scored in 12 of their last 15 away matches, and with Dalkurd scoring 2 goals or more in 9 of their last 15 matches at home, further goals look likely to follow in this encounter.
