GAIS Team Overview
The away team played their last official match on as part of the UEFA Europa Conference League tournament (home team - Nordsjaelland, away - GAIS). The match concluded with a scoreline of 6:0.

Fredrik Holmberg also has limited options. Gustav Lundgren tore his Achilles on the warm-up before the first round, Kevin Holmen suffered a cruciate ligament rupture a few days later - both are out for the rest of the season, and a year ago both scored against Halmstad. For this match, suspended defender Robin Wendin Thomasson has been added to the absentee list.

Editor's Pick
GAIS have failed to score more than one goal in six matches in a row, and away from home - in 8 of their last 9. In July against Halmstad it was the same story: Henry Sletsje's goal in the 52nd minute, then several saves from Tim RΓΈnning, and in added time Malte Persson was brought down in the box, with Rocco Ascone converting the penalty.
The referee will be Niklas Karlsson, whose matches rarely go beyond two or three goals: over 1.5 was reached in 8 of his last 9, under 3.5 in 9 of his last 10. The hosts are toothless up front, the visitors are still recovering from a heavy defeat, and we are not expecting any fireworks here. The bet is GAIS to score under 1.5 goals. Predicted score - 0:1.
