Hammarby Team Overview
The Swedish club started their European campaign in the Europa League qualifying rounds, but couldn't get past Anderlecht. A 1-1 draw at home was followed by a 1-3 defeat in Belgium, and they now find themselves in the Conference League instead.
That said, Hammarby's current form is decent enough. The Swedish league is in full swing, so the squad arrives at European fixtures in reasonable shape. In Allsvenskan, they're still up among the leaders and have been backing that up with results.
Hammarby's game is built around ball control and quick attacks down the flanks. Paulos Abraham is one of the more dangerous players - he managed to get on the scoresheet even in the difficult away leg against Anderlecht. The defence, though, isn't always as solid, particularly when opponents push the tempo and get physical. On top of that, the coaching staff have to manage rotation carefully - the squad is juggling a title challenge in the league with a busy European schedule.

⭐️ Editor's Pick
This one looks fairly even, despite Raków being slight favourites at home. The hosts tend to be bolder on their own patch and will likely try to take the game to the opposition, but Hammarby are in good form and rarely leave the pitch without scoring. Both sides prefer to look for chances going forward rather than just sitting back.
The stats back this up too. Raków scored in 20 of their last 22 matches, and Hammarby found the net in 15 of their previous 16. Against that backdrop, Both Teams To Score - Yes looks like the most interesting option here.
