Elfsborg - Malmö FF predictions

The 4.42 odds on a home win result mark the hosts as clear underdogs. Things are fairly lopsided, in fact, so backing such an outcome would be quite a longshot.

Even with the home-field advantage as a factor, Malmö FF have a better chance of winning this clash than their opponents. They can’t afford to relax just yet though – the hosts may prove a tough nut to crack after all.

Elfsborg left a strong impression in their previous home game against Sirius . The 2:0 victory itself may have been predictable, but the overwhelming success which they achieved is nothing to scoff at.

Malmö FF are coming on the back of a 5:0 victory in their most recent Allsvenskan game. They were the hosts in that instance, though, and the matchup against AIK was largely favourable as well. In other words – they performed as well as could be expected, but the triumph itself was nothing extraordinary.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Elfsborg’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

The visitors are on a bit of a purple patch when it comes to scoring, with 5 goals scored in total in their latest 3 Allsvenskan matches. If the trend continues, we’re bound to see a pretty exciting game here.

We can rely on the teams’ previous meeting as a point of reference. Earlier in the season, Malmö FF won a Allsvenskan match against Elfsborg in a relatively close game. With that in mind, the 1.84 odds on the visitors winning make a lot of sense.

Due to the absence of injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their complete lineups available for an exciting match.

This match is a bit tough to find value in, so you’ll need to be willing to take a risk. An HT/FT Draw/Away bet at odds of 4.42 is not exactly probable, but it’s clearly the best offer in terms of value.
