GAIS - Mjällby predictions

GAIS have their work cut out for them if they want to beat Mjällby. They are widely considered to be the weaker team – though the difference is not huge, to be fair. Overall, it’s shaping up to be an exciting showdown.

Given their reputation for perseverance, we expect Mjällby to give their best effort in this match.

The top online bookmakers didn’t give GAIS much of a shot at winning their previous away match against Norrköping – and they were right. Still, they maintained an even score until the second half and only lost by a 1-goal difference (1:0). This wasn’t a terrible performance considering the 4.00 odds on an away win at kick-off.

Mjällby’s previous Allsvenskan match ended with a home draw against AIK. The 1:1 outcome was better for Mjällby than for their opponents, but fans are hoping for more decisive results in round 4.

The first step GAIS need to make to improve is to shore up their defences. With more than 5 goals conceded over the last 3 matches, it seems to be the main aspect of play holding them back.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Sunday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

If you’re hunting for betting value, a Draw bet is by far your best option. Success is definitely not guaranteed, but the 3.42 odds provide a decent enough return to make the risk worth it.
