Örebro are welcoming Degerfors for yet another important game after their 0-2 result vs 12th-placed IFK Göteborg.

Insights:
  • Örebro have the most conceded goals (46) in Allsvenskan
  • Degerfors have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Degerfors play their home fixtures on grass, while this fixture will take part on artifical turf. Relevant statistics for Degerfors when featuring on artifical turf are 6 wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from 13 matches. They have managed to score 27 goals and conceded 22 times in these games.

Örebro form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Allsvenskan this season. Örebro have only managed 2 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Behrn Arena. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Örebro to get some points in this home game.

In their previous game, the manager V. Brito Gazimba led his Örebro to a defeat in the Allsvenskan match away at IFK Göteborg. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Behrn Arena. Midfielder Kevin Walker was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.44 (out of ten) in that game. Walker hit three key passes.

Before that game, the home loss against Häcken with the scoreline 1-2.

This is expected to be a close game, with Örebro perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Örebro as a small favourite), we find seven games. Örebro has won two of these, drawn three and lost two.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Örebro as they are travelling to their away game against Halmstad in the Allsvenskan. That match is three days after this one.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Örebro here at Behrn Arena in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (9 from 11 games). On the other hand, Örebro have conceded 16 goals.

Degerfors form and stats

There's been little loot from Degerfors's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 12 away games in the Allsvenskan. Degerfors only have 1 win to counter their 8 defeats and 3 draws. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row.

Degerfors had fun at their own home (Behrn Arena) last time out, beating Halmstad 2-1. Villiam Dahlström and Johan Bertilsson scored. Goalkeeper Alfie Whiteman was absolutely vital in the Degerfors victory against Halmstad, making six saves. Attacker Villiam Dahlström got a player rating of 8.0 in the game. "Man of the match" Dahlström scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

A 0-0 draw at Varberg's stadium before that.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Degerfors in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Degerfors, one draw and four defeats.

After this away game Degerfors return home for a Allsvenskan game against Elfsborg. That game is only three sleeps after this.

The attacking power of Degerfors when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 12 league matches away. The Degerfors manager A. Holmberg has some worries about the defense as 26 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Örebro and Degerfors have faced each other earlier this season: Degerfors - Örebro 3-0. Data for the prior eight meetings involving these two sides are: five wins for Örebro, two draws and one win for Degerfors. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
