Västerås SK - Halmstad predictions

Västerås SK might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Halmstad are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

The matchup this Saturday is rather one-sided, with Halmstad seen as the clear underdogs. Most bookmakers online have priced their victory at 4.25, which is enough to doubt such an outcome will happen.

Västerås SK will have been disappointed with their previous Allsvenskan fixture. Boosted by their home support, all they managed to do is to hold on for the first 45 minutes. A draw at the break turned into a narrow Elfsborg defeat the hosts are keen to bounce from.

Halmstad played as the home team in their most recent matchup and secured a narrow victory. Pre-match Allsvenskan betting odds implied that they were more or less evenly matched with IFK Göteborg despite the home-field advantage, but the HT/FT outcome proved them to be the stronger team.

Västerås SK’s past two matches only feature a goal or less each. As such, you may want to consider an Under 2.5 bet – or even Under 1.5, if you’re feeling confident.

Both teams will be able to field their strongest lineups this Saturday, with no injuries or suspensions to worry about.

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 1.73. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
