Halmstad - Kalmar predictions

Halmstad will have to put on their best performance to record a home win against Kalmar. The price of 2.90 indicates a difficult battle and that’s exactly what we expect to see in this match.

Kalmar have their work cut out for them this Thursday. Most bookmakers online see them as the stronger team, made evident by the 2.41 betting odds for an away win. That’s a fairly slim advantage, though.

Halmstad’s previous performance against IFK Göteborg brought a 1:1 stalemate which lasted throughout the runtime. All things considered, though, this can be counted as a bit of a success for them. After all, they were in an away game against a greatly favoured team.

Kalmar are coming off from a narrow home defeat against AIK. Most bookmakers online anticipated the 0:1 result, but it should be mentioned that they went toe-to-toe with AIK for the first 45 minutes.

Though the 5 concessions over the past 3 away games for Halmstad may not directly affect this particular match, such a history may be cause for concern for their supporters.

Kalmar can’t really boast a great record when it comes to playing as visitors. They conceded upwards of 5 goals in their most recent 3 away games. Considering they’re heading into another away game, that’s cause for concern.

Looking back at the head-to-head stats for this matchup, Halmstad are more than able to beat the odds and come out on top. They did so last season, even securing a considerable goal lead. Kalmar are still the favourites, though, and the betting odds are firmly in their favour.

With no injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their full rosters available for an exciting showdown.
