Hammarby Team Overview
Sweden's runners-up, cup finalists, and a team that has scored in 19 consecutive home matches. That said, in the previous round the Scandinavians had a painful exit from the Europa League. Anderlecht knocked them out on aggregate, though the Belgians only finished the job in the second half of the return leg in Brussels. In Częstochowa, Hammarby outperformed the hosts across every metric: 15 shots to 11 and six corners to five with equal possession. After the match, Kroczek said the Swedes were breaking lines with a high press and were getting through the midfield too easily.

The Poles had no trouble with Valletta in the second round: they scored three goals at home (3:1) and four in Malta (4:0). In the Ekstraklasa, however, they started with two consecutive defeats, both by a score of 1:2. Raków's problem is in finishing, and the first match confirmed that. Kroczek counted six chances created, four of them from set pieces, and was left unhappy: a lead going into the away leg would have given them peace of mind, but there is none. On top of that, a personnel loss was added - captain Fran Tudor left the pitch in the 25th minute due to injury.

⭐️ Editor's Pick
Both teams to score. Hammarby have scored in 19 consecutive home matches, and Raków in their last nine away games have never failed to concede and never failed to score. But the key point is that after a goalless first leg at home, Raków need to win in Stockholm - sitting back makes no sense. And the hosts will push forward themselves against such an opponent. The bet is both teams to score (yes). Predicted score - 2:1.
