Allsvenskan: Top-drawer vs modest, at least that's what the table says. Malmö FF - Varberg BoIS. Home win or a surprise result?

Insights:
  • Malmö FF have the most scored goals in the first half (24) in Allsvenskan
  • Varberg BoIS have the fewest scored goals (21) in Allsvenskan

Varberg BoIS are nearing the end of this stay in this division as relegation is now unavoidable.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Malmö FF form and stats

Malmö FF have performed here at Eleda Stadion this season with 9 wins from 13 Allsvenskan matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 3 games and lost 1.

Malmö lost their last game at Kalmar (placed 6th) after a 0-1 scoreline. Up until that defeat this team had gone six consecutive league matches without a defeat. The defeat against Kalmar was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored five minutes into stoppage time (by Skrabb). Nanasi (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.34/10. Nanasi hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 33 successful passes (of 39 total).

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Brommapojkarna in a game that was won 2-1.

It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Malmö FF have performed as huge favourites like they are today: 5 games found in the database showing 5 Malmö FF wins, 0 draws and 0 defeats.

Goals decide football matches and Malmö FF are scoring many of them at home; 32 on target from 13 league matches. From these home matches, Malmö FF have conceded only 11 goals.

Varberg BoIS form and stats

There's been little loot from Varberg BoIS's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 13 away games in the Allsvenskan. Varberg BoIS only have 2 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 2 draws. A depressing four defeats in a row for Varberg in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Halmstad.

Varberg BoIS failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Djurgården (placed 4th) that ended with defeat 0-1. Defender Zackrisson was the best team player with a rating of 8.01. Zackrisson hit one key pass and won 3 of 4 duels.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Elfsborg's place.

Highlight this: 9 of the latest 11 league games featuring this side have ended with only one (or no) side scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting).

The Varberg BoIS manager Skogman has some worries about the defense as 28 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Malmö FF have put together a streak of 5 consecutive games without defeat (4-1-0) when playing Varberg BoIS.
