Only a few games have been played in the Allsvenskan so far, with Elfsborg placed 8th and Mjällby sitting in the 13th position.
Elfsborg and Mjällby should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Mjällby's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Mjällby have performed like this: Played 14 matches resulting in 6 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats with the goal stats 25-22 (scored/conceded).
Elfsborg form and stats
Elfsborg's first Allsvenskan home game here at Borås Arena ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 6 wins, 8 draws and 1 defeat from 15 matches.
It's back home for Elfsborg, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Varberg BoIS away with the result 3-1. Maudo Jarjué and Marokhy Ndione (2) found the net in that victory. Preceding that match was a defeat to Djurgården (0-2).
The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Elfsborg matches with similar probabilities have ended with four wins, one draw and zero defeats (from five games).
Early season league goal statistics from Elfsborg's 1 home game: 0 goals, 2 conceded.
Mjällby form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Allsvenskan ended in defeat. Last season Mjällby had these away match statistics: Played 15; won 5, drew 4 and lost 6.
Mjällby are looking to quickly end their 180 minutes long goal drought in the Allsvenskan.
Mjällby lost away at Hammarby (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A draw for Mjällby before that, at their own venue hosting Varberg BoIS (0-0).
Looking at the earlier recent performances of Mjällby when being an outsider away as they are today, we find three matches with the visitors losing one time, drawing one and winning one game.
It's early days yet, but Mjällby has scored 0 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
Head 2 Head
Elfsborg-Mjällby H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Elfsborg five wins, Mjällby two wins, three draws. eight of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
