Norrköping vs Halmstad Prediction & Preview
Preview
The Sweden Allsvenskan's 15th round pits Norrköping against Halmstad on Sunday, July 21st at Östgötaporten. The home side, currently 16th with 11 points, will look to turn their fortunes around after a dismal run of five consecutive losses in their last five matches. Their last outing ended in defeat, losing 2-1 away to Västerås SK.
Halmstad, sitting 11th with 18 points, aren't faring much better, having won only once in their last five games. They too suffered a loss in their previous match, going down 2-1 at home to AIK. The visitors have a slight edge in terms of recent head-to-head encounters, with two wins out of the last five meetings between the teams.
When these sides last clashed on August 13th, 2023, Norrköping emerged victorious, winning 3-1 away from home. Average goals per game statistics suggest Halmstad's attacking prowess (1.2 goals scored per match) could trouble Norrköping's leaky defense (3 goals conceded per game). However, the hosts do have a slight advantage when playing at Östgötaporten, scoring an average of 0.5 goals per game compared to Halmstad's 0.33 away goals.
Bet
Considering their recent form and goal-scoring statistics, I would recommend betting on Over 2.5 goals in this match. Norrköping's porous defense and Halmstad's ability to score an average of 1.2 goals per game make it likely that we'll see at least three goals scored. The odds for Over 2.5 are 1.65, which offers decent value given the statistics.
