Monday 16th July 2018 – Kickoff: 1900hrs
Football – Sweden – Allsvenskan Betting Tips
Monday evening brings us the final match of this weekend’s action in the Swedish Allsvenskan, but nevertheless, an important fixture as Elfsborg take on Hammarby at their Borås Arena with the hosts looking to post a fourth consecutive league win.
Recent wins over Dalkurd, Trelleborg and Orebro have helped Elfsborg to avoid being sucked into the relegation places of the Swedish top flight for now, but they’ll face a tough challenge from visitors Hammarby this evening as Elfsborg’s results on home turf have been pretty ordinary so far this season.
A home record of 1-3-2 6/7 underlines the problems they’ve had to date although they come into this encounter on the back of a four match unbeaten run which includes three stalemates. Goals have been scarce for the visitors whose leading goalscorers are Prodell and Jebali (3 goals apiece).
Hammarby sit in third spot ahead of Monday night’s clash at Elfsborg, but all three points here this evening would see them overhaul Norrkoping into second place and just one point behind Allsvenskan leaders, AIK.
The visitors are without a win from their last three matches following defeats to AIK and Ostersunds, but these were both at their Tele2 Arena, while their performances away from home have been far more solid.
An away record of 3-2-0 9/6 shows that Hammarby still remain unbeaten on their travels and are unbeaten in their last six matches overall on the road which includes wins at GIF Sundsvall, IFK Gothenborg, Djurgarden and Orebro.
Midfielder Hamad (6 goals) and forward Durdic (7 goals) look the most likely to notch for the visitors, who look well placed to get something from this clash.
Pick: Hammarby AH+0.25 @ 1.85 Bet Victor
