Varberg BoIS - Östersunds FK betting tips and odds

Varberg BoIS are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Östersunds FK winning, though.

Considering what they’re up against, Östersunds FK can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 6.00 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

The previous round was fairly uneventful for both Varberg BoIS and Kalmar , the opposing home team. Considering an away win was priced at 2.26 with most top online bookies, however, a 2:2 draw is a positive result for Varberg BoIS.

Östersunds FK’s previous Allsvenskan match ended in a 1:1 draw. Considering the 5.75 top online bookmakers offered for Östersunds FK winning, though, they’re far happier with the result than their opponents Häcken.

Varberg BoIS have displayed rather inconsistent defensive play in their previous outings. Specifically, their previous 3 away games have been marked by more than 5 conceded goals. They may be at home this time, but such records usually highlight deeper issues than a home-field disadvantage.

The visitors’ main concern will be cutting down the concession rate. They conceded more than 5 times in their latest 3 matches, and bucking the trend will be a great step in the right direction.

As far as the recent history of this matchup goes, the records show a decisive victory by Varberg BoIS last season. They even secured a solid lead, which is part of the reason most bookies consider them to be the favourites in this matchup.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.83, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
