Degerfors will hope that their home support is enough to get at least a draw from this grim dispute, versus fiery Häcken.

Insights:
  • Degerfors have the most conceded goals (47) in Allsvenskan
  • Häcken have the most scored goals (52) in Allsvenskan

Häcken could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Europa League game only three sleeps ago. That game, against Aberdeen, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Häcken.

Degerfors form and stats

The story so far in the Allsvenskan for Degerfors, who have the most conceded goals (47) in Allsvenskan, at their home stadium (Stora Valla) is 4 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats.

No payout for Degerfors in their previous match, an away game at Djurgården that ended in defeat 1-4. Midfield player Martensson got a match rating of 7.12 in that game, the max score being 10. Martensson hit one key pass and had 28 successful passes (of 31 total).

In the game before, a nice away victory at Katrineholms SK. A Svenska Cupen match.

Degerfors are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 11 games. Degerfors have conceded 17 from these games. When Degerfors hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like AIK, Varberg, Halmstad, IFK Göteborg and Sirius), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 2 of 3 times.

Häcken form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most scored goals (52) in Allsvenskan, on their Allsvenskan travels is 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Häcken are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Two travels in a row for Häcken, whose manager Høgmo could celebrate last time after the Europa League win against Aberdeen.

Prior to that match, the Häcken manager Høgmo faced defeat when travelling to IFK Göteborg and losing 2-4.

Goal hungry football fans should note that 15 of this side's 20 latest league matches have ended with at least three goals.
