Head-to-head statistics Djurgarden - Elfsborg
Djurgardens Team Overview
Jani Honkavaara's side have 41 points, seven behind leaders Sirius. Their recent run has been built on defensive solidity: Djurgården have not conceded in their last five league matches. The manager attributes this to a positional change involving Piotr Johansson, which he says has brought balance to the team. On Monday, Djurgården beat GAIS 2-0. Kristian Lien scored the first goal to move clear at the top of the scoring charts, with Bo Hegland providing the assist - his 15th of the season, equalling an Allsvenskan record. The evening was soured by a red card: substitute Christos Almiras will miss the match against Elfsborg unless the club successfully appeal the sending-off.

Elfsborg Team Overview
Elfsborg are managed by Björn Hamberg this season. In the previous round they beat Kalmar by a single goal, scored by Momo Kamara, and the three points kept their European hopes alive. That same match also saw veteran Per Frick return after several months out injured. The visitors have plenty of attacking threat to test Djurgården's clean-sheet run: Elfsborg have scored in 9 of their last 10 away Allsvenskan matches.

Total Goals Prediction
Djurgården's home ground, the 3Arena, rarely sees low-scoring affairs: more than two goals have been scored in 7 of their last 8 Allsvenskan matches there. The hosts themselves deserve much of the credit for that. Djurgården average 2.64 goals per home game this season, and in their last 10 such matches that figure rises to 3.25. Elfsborg, meanwhile, average 1.2 goals per game in away matches. So the visitors are capable of contributing too. We're expecting at least three goals. The bet is Total Goals - Over 2.5.
Corner Kick Prediction
Elfsborg have taken more than three corners in 6 of their last 7 matches. The run is recent, with just one exception so far. The risk lies elsewhere: away at the second-placed side in the league, Elfsborg will most likely have to defend more. The odds of 2.03 compensate for that risk. The bet is Elfsborg Team Total Corners - Over 3.5.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the most likely outcomes for this match are: 2:1 (9.96%), 1:1 (9.83%) and 1:0 (9.67%). The gap between the three leading options is minimal, though 2:1 comes out as the most probable.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
Elfsborg have lost by more than one goal to Djurgården only once in their last 10 Allsvenskan head-to-head meetings. The away record tells the same story: Elfsborg have gone 12 consecutive away matches without losing by more than one goal. Even given Djurgården's current run of form, we're not expecting a big home win. One goal is more likely to settle it. Our bet is Elfsborg - Handicap +1.5. Predicted score - 2:1.
