Classic home win, away team steals the points or a score draw? Everything is possible when the mid-table teams Västerås SK and Helsingborg clash at Iver Arena.

Insights:
  • Västerås SK have not yet lost a game at home.
  • Helsingborg have the fewest conceded goals (2) away in Superettan

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Helsingborg have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 3-7-6 (win-draw-loss) from 16 matches.
