Elfsborg have won eight of their last nine matches
The hosts have won five straight home games
Hammarby have won one of their last four trips and they’re winless against sides above them
Elfsborg to continue fine run
Elfsborg are in fantastic form ahead of this weekend’s clash between two of the top four sides in the league. The hosts have moved into the European places thanks to winning eight of their previous nine, which put them a point clear of fourth-placed Hammarby.
While there’s little between the two teams, this isn’t expected to be a close game. The hosts have a fantastic record behind them at their own ground, winning five of their last six home matches.
Their opponents have tended to pick up their points at the weaker sides in the division, while they’ve won just one of their last four league trips.
Hammarby have failed to beat a side above them this term, which includes home and away defeats at leaders Mjallby.
The hosts have averaged three goals per game at their own ground this season, so expect them to have too much for the visitors. Back Elfsborg to continue their fine run, with the hosts tipped for a 3-1 win.
