Kalmar vs Djurgården - 20/07/24

Kalmar vs Djurgården Prediction & Preview

Preview

The Guldfågeln Arena is set to host a crucial match in the Sweden Allsvenskan on Saturday, 20th July, as Kalmar takes on Djurgården in the 15th round of the competition. The home team, coached by Stefan Larsson, will be looking to bounce back from their recent defeat against Brommapojkarna at home, which ended 0-1.

Kalmar's form has been inconsistent, with 2 wins and 3 losses in their last 5 matches, earning them only 6 points during that period. They currently sit 14th in the Allsvenskan table with 13 points. The team struggles to find the back of the net, scoring an average of 0.8 goals per game, and conceding 2.2 goals per game.

On the other hand, Djurgården, led by Thomas Lagerlöf, is in excellent form, having won 4 of their last 5 matches, losing only 1, and accumulating 12 points in that span. They are currently 2nd in the Allsvenskan table with 31 points. The away team has been prolific in front of goal, scoring an average of 1.8 goals per game, while conceding 1.4 goals per game.

The last time these two teams met at Guldfågeln Arena was on 12/11/2023, and Kalmar emerged victorious with a 2-1 win. However, Djurgården has the upper hand in their head-to-head matches, winning 3 of the last 5 encounters, while Kalmar has won 2.

Bet

Considering the recent form and statistics of both teams, I would recommend a bet on an Away Win for Djurgården at odds of 1.66. Djurgården's strong form, combined with their ability to score an average of 2.67 goals per game when playing away, makes them a compelling choice. Additionally, Kalmar's struggles to find the back of the net and conceding 2.5 goals per game at home make it difficult for them to get a positive result.
