Football tips: Varberg BoIS vs Örebro - predictions and betting guide

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.

10-4-8 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Örebro when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 22 matches are 32-30 (scored/conceded).

Varberg BoIS form and stats

When playing at home in the Allsvenskan, Varberg BoIS have managed 3 wins, 2 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 8 games. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Varberg, their manager J. Persson and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Varberg BoIS faced defeat in their previous match, away at Häcken (1-2). Ahead of that match, Varberg BoIS lost 1-3 at home to Häcken.

Stojan Lukić had a busy but productive day in the Häcken match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Varberg have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won three times, drawn three and lost zero.

Varberg are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 8 games. Varberg have conceded 11 in these home matches.

Örebro form and stats

There's been little loot from Örebro's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 8 away games in the Allsvenskan. Örebro only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws.

The manager A. Kjäll was unhappy after their last game, a Allsvenskan match played at their home ground Behrn Arena. Örebro suffered a 0-3 loss to Djurgården (placed 3rd). Prior to that match, the Örebro manager A. Kjäll faced defeat when travelling to Malmö FF and losing 1-2.

It's a bit worrying for Örebro that their goalkeeper Oscar Jansson made six saves in the Djurgården game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.

Örebro are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, two draws and one defeat. From a total of six matches.
