Kalmar form and stats

Kalmar have collected 18 points from their Allsvenskan home games so far after 5-3-2. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

A good away victory last time out for Kalmar, who won 3-2 against Brommapojkarna (placed 10th). Finally, a league win after four matches without one. The talented striker Hümmet bested all the other players in that fixture and was awarded a match rating of 8.1 out of 10. Hümmet scored two goals.

Before that, a fine away victory at Tvååker. A Svenska Cupen game. The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Kalmar have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 7 matches with the results: Won 5, drawn 1 and lost 1.

Kalmar are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 10 games. Kalmar have conceded 12 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
