🔊 In Allsvenskan, Mjällby - the reigning Swedish champions - sit 12th and have gone seven away matches without a win. On Thursday, though, they made their debut in the Conference League league phase and beat Andorran side Inter Escaldes 2-0. On Sunday they face Västerås, who have kept clean sheets in five of their last six home league matches. Will the visitors carry any momentum from Europe?

Head-to-head statistics Vasteras - Mjallby
Vasteras Team Overview
Västerås lost 0-1 away to Gothenburg in the last round of Allsvenskan. Despite having a 13-3 advantage in shots, they managed only two shots on target.
Västerås's defence has been solid at home. In September they beat Malmö 2-0 on their own ground - Malmö currently sit sixth and are just one point ahead of Alexander Rubin's side.
On Sunday the hosts will be without goalkeeper Elis Jäger. He picked up a red card in the previous round in Gothenburg, where Västerås lost by a single goal: Jäger fouled in stoppage time and the referee awarded a penalty. There were no substitutions left, so an outfield player went in goal, and the opponent missed the spot kick. The club has yet to announce who will replace Jäger. André Bernardini, the team's other goalkeeper, is out for Sunday with a minor knee injury, while the third-choice keeper, Anton Fagerström, was on the bench in that match.

Mjallby AIF Team Overview
Mjølby beat Inter Escaldes 2-0 at home in their last Conference League match. There were no goals at half-time, and Mjølby landed all seven shots on target across the game despite having just 44% possession.
Mjällby are no longer fighting for the title - they are fighting to stay in Allsvenskan. They sit four points clear of 14th place, which leads to the relegation play-offs. Ahead of the previous round, captain Jesper Gustafsson was blunt: "This is about survival in the league."
In September, following three consecutive league defeats, the club sacked manager Karl-Marius Aksum. He was replaced by Andreas Brännström, who had previously managed Mjällby in 2022, but under him the team have drawn three times and lost once in Allsvenskan. Time is short: on 22 October the club face a trip to Tbilisi for a Conference League match.

Corners Prediction
Westeros don't win many corners: they had six or more in just one of their last 11 matches. We don't expect them to reach six corners here. The bet is Westeros Team Total Corners - Under 5.5.
The Reliable Bet
Five or more goals have been scored in just one of Västerås's last seven matches. Neither Västerås nor Mjällby have been prolific this season either. Even four goals between them won't break the bet. The pick is Total Goals - Under 4.5.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the three most likely outcomes are 1-1 (11.93%), 1-0 (9.35%) and 2-1 (8.41%). Of these, 1-1 has the highest probability, though the other two scorelines are close behind.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Västerås have hosted six consecutive home matches in Allsvenskan, and in every one of them the combined goal tally was under three. Mjällby have nothing to break that run with: they have scored more than one goal in just one of their last 12 league matches. That said, goals are unlikely to be avoided altogether. Mjällby have conceded in each of their last nine away league matches, while they themselves have failed to score in only one of those trips. We expect a tight game in which both sides manage just one goal each. The bet is Total Goals - Under 2.5. Predicted score: 1-1.
Will this prediction come true?
