Despite Halmstad's struggles, they'll be trying to take something from this match against the league leaders - expect them to sit deep for the full 90 minutes. And that approach has paid off against Sirius before: the Halmstad +1.5 handicap has landed in 8 of their last 9 meetings. We're backing it again.
