Halmstad v AFC Eskilstuna
🏟
Saturday 14th May – 2:00PM KO
The fixture of the weekend comes from the Orjans Vall as Halmstad play host to AFC Eskilstuna in the Swedish Superettan.
The home side are a short price to win this one on the back of a run of form that has seen them win four successive games. These victories have moved them into fourth after a slow start that saw them pick up just one point from their opening two games.
Just two of the matches Halmstad have played so far have come at home and this saw them beat Ostersunds 2-0 and lose to 2-1 Norrby. Despite this recent good form the price on them to come out on top here is far too short.
Their opponents are no mugs and sit top of the table with five victories and one defeat from their opening six. Eskilstuna are firing in the goals having grabbed 18 already this season an average of three per fixture. They have won each of their last two on the road and four straight in the league going back into last season.
It feels like these markets are a reaction to the name value of both teams. Halmstad were relegated from Allsvenskan last season and are a big name compared to their opponents. The visitors though are getting among the goals and netted a remarkable five in the last 16 minutes of their previous game. Confidence is high and Amar Mushin with six for the campaign looks a really good player at this level.
Betfair Sportsbook are offering 7/5 on AFC Eskiltuna and the draw in the double chance market and this looks the best way to play this fixture with the odds seemingly based on reputation and experience rather than on pitch performances.

Prediction: AFC Eskilstuna Double Chance, 2.40 on Betfair (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)
Landskrona v Brommapojkarna
🏟
Sunday 15th May – 2:00PM KO
Any neutral fans in attendance at Landskrona Idrottsplats could be in for a treat in this fixture between two sides who know how to find the back of the net.
Landskrona have seen a total of 11 goals at both ends in their last three fixtures and on three occasions from their opening six games have gone over 2.5 goals. Linus Olsson will be full of confidence after netting four times in his previous fixture. When just looking at home games each of their last four have gone over 3.5 goals and seen both teams net.
Brommapojkarana also know where the back of the net is with all six of their games this campaign seeing both teams score and going over 2.5 goals. They have produced a combined 25 goals from their opening six. This is an incredible average of over four goals per fixture.
The recommended bet is to take the game to have over 2.5 goals at 3/4 on the Betfair Sportsbook although it is also worth considering over 3.5 given the volume of goals both sides are producing.
The meeting between the pair last season at Landskrona also went over 2.5 goals with it ending 2-1 to the visitors.
Superettan has seen far more goals than Allsvenskan this campaign with ten of the 16 teams averaging more than two goals per game. Compared to the top-flight where just three sides are doing the same. This is a trend worth following and another reason when combined with the scoring records of both teams this season to take over 2.5 goals.

Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals, 1.75 on Betfair (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)
Ostersunds v Brage
🏟
Sunday 15th May – 2:00PM KO
This Sunday afternoon game sees two sides at opposite ends of the table do battle as the team in 12th place plays hosts to the side in second.
Brage have made a great start to the campaign taking 13 points from their opening six fixtures. They are the second highest scoring side in the division with 15 goals including four in their last match which saw them hammer Ogryte. On the road, they are not short of goals with each of their last three seeing them go over 1.5 team goals and four of their last five.
Backing Brage to go over 1.5 team goals then is the bet considering how free scoring they are at the moment. You can get this at 5/4 on the Betfair Sportsbook and this looks good value.
Their opponents Ostersunds have dropped off considerably since the days in Europe under Graham Potter. At one stage they were playing Arsenal in the Europa League but have since been relegated.
They have conceded at least once in five of their six games so far this season. At home, they have already shipped three times during a loss to Skövde so it shows that a good attacking side can get at them and Brage are a good forward unit.
The road side have in Niklas Soderberg a player in good scoring form with three goals from his last two starts while Johan Arvidsson has two in three and Joakim Persson has two goals in four.
The visitors should win this one but their opponents are a funny side who might find their scoring touch again. You can remove the danger of what the home team do by simply backing the visitors to go over 1.5 team goals.

Prediction: Brage to Score Over 1.5 Goals, 2.25 on Betfair (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)
