The Häcken crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-4 to Kalmar here at Prioritet Serneke Arena in a Allsvenskan match.

A 1-1 draw away before that, with Östersunds FK the opponent.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Häcken's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played one game, won zero matches, drawn zero and lost one.

Degerfors form and stats

There's been little loot from Degerfors's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 13 away games in the Allsvenskan. Degerfors only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 3 draws.

Home advantage was not enough for Degerfors in their previous game, as they lost their Allsvenskan-match, hosting IFK Göteborg, 0-1. Erik Lindell got a match rating of 8.04 in that game, top player of the team. Lindell hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Elfsborg.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Degerfors playing away, we found four games. Results were two away wins, one draw and one home win.

The attacking power of Degerfors when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 13 league matches away. Degerfors have conceded 27 goals in these games.
