Hammarby - Djurgården predictions

Hammarby are not exactly firm favourites to register three points in this game but we still believe they will manage to defeat Djurgården. The odds of 2.36 might sound a bit risky but we still trust hosts can come out on top in the end.

Out of their home field and heading into this match as underdogs, Djurgården would need to play their best to have a hope of winning. That said, even a draw would be a positive outcome, and all three results are quite possible.

The hosts are here after a surprisingly close game against Halmstad in the previous round of the Allsvenskan. The short odds implied that they would easily secure a victory, but they only managed to pull ahead in the late game and finish with a 1:0 home win.

Djurgården did not exactly meet the expectations when it comes to their previous league match. They were the 1.51 favourites to beat Kalmar but instead went on to record an underwhelming 1:1 draw. To make things worse, Djurgården were trailing at the halftime mark.

The previous two matches Hammarby played in all ended with fewer than 2 goals at the final whistle. That doesn’t make for exciting football, but may be useful information if you’re planning a Goals Scored bet.

The latest example of a clash between these two sides we have is from last season when Hammarby managed to walk away with a solid victory and a 2+ goal difference. If the 2.36 betting odds for a home win are to be believed, most bookies are expecting them to repeat that success.

On Sunday, both teams will have a complete roster at their disposal, thanks to a lack of injuries or suspensions.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.99. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
