Degerfors vs Hammarby Prediction 20 September 2026
🔊 Hammarby are chasing their first title since 2001, while Degerfors are fighting to stay in Allsvenskan. The hosts have long found this opponent a difficult one: Degerfors have gone nine consecutive league matches without a win against Hammarby. That run continued in July at the 3Arena. Now both sides have nine rounds left - Degerfors to secure survival, Hammarby to close the gap on the leaders.

Head-to-head statistics Degerfors - Hammarby

Degerfors Team Overview
Before this round, Degerfors sit 14th with 19 points - a play-off position. 13th-placed Kalmar have the same tally, and Henok Goitom's side are four points clear of the automatic relegation zone. The main problem for the hosts is their attack: 19 goals in 21 matches, with only Halmstad faring worse. Even the 2-0 win over bottom side Halmstad on 5 September was decided by substitutes - Ludwig Fritzson and Nahom Netabay both scored after coming off the bench past the 70th minute. Nine days later in Uppsala, the team fell behind in the second minute through an Ahmad Faki own goal and lost 0-2 to the league leaders. Degerfors rarely lose heavily at home: in their last nine league matches at home, they have been beaten by more than one goal just once.
Match Results: Degerfors

Hammarby Team Overview
Before this round, Hammarby sit third with 40 points: Djurgården are a point ahead, while Sirius lead by eight. Henrik Rydström's side have the second-best attack in the league with 48 goals, but their finishing has let them down in recent rounds. Away at second-bottom Örgrytte, Hammarby had 24 shots to their opponents' two and hit the frame four times, yet Viktor Lind's penalty was the only goal and they came away from Gothenburg with just a point. The week before, Hammarby lost the away derby to AIK. Last round they returned to the 3Arena and beat Brommapojkarna.

Match Result Prediction
Degerfors rarely lose heavily at home: they have been beaten by more than one goal just once in their last nine Allsvenskan matches on their own ground. Big defeats are uncommon for them in general - they have lost by more than two goals only once in their last 15 matches. There is a gap in quality: Hammarby are third, while Degerfors are in the play-off zone. But that difference usually translates to no more than a one-goal margin on the scoreboard. The pick is Degerfors with Handicap +1.5.
Corners Prediction
Hammarby's last five matches have all followed the same pattern: both teams combined for fewer than 11 corners. It's a short run, but a consistent one. We're expecting a game where the visitors hold the ball and the hosts sit back defensively - a scenario that doesn't tend to produce many corners. The bet is Total Corners - Under 10.5.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the most likely outcomes are 0-1 (10.89%), 0-2 (10.15%) and 1-2 (9.88%). All three point to a Hammarby win by one or two goals.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
In Degerfors's last eight Allsvenskan matches, the combined goal tally has been under four in each game. High-scoring affairs involving the hosts are rare. Hammarby themselves have scored more than two goals in just one of their last 11 away Allsvenskan matches. Their defence is one of the best in the league: 20 goals conceded, one more than Djurgården. We don't expect Degerfors to score twice against that backline, which means we're not expecting more than three goals between the two sides either. The bet is Total Goals - Under 3.5. Predicted score: 1-2.
