Can Helsingborg defeat Elfsborg in Olympia clash?

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Elfsborg have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 14-4-4 (win-draw-loss) from 22 matches.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Helsingborg and Elfsborg.
