Vasteras vs Halmstads Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 23 October 2026
🔊 Halmstad are bottom of the Allsvenskan table. They are six points behind 14th place, which carries a play-off spot, with six rounds remaining. There is no time to waste, and next up is a trip to Västerås, where Halmstad's last win came back in April 2024. Since then, the hosts have won both meetings, including a 3-1 home victory in July. Can the league's worst attack - 16 goals in 24 matches - break down a defence that concedes very little at home?

Head-to-head statistics Vasteras - Halmstads

Vasteras Team Overview
Västerås beat Mjällby 1-0 at home in their last Allsvenskan match. The hosts had twice as many shots - 22 against 11 - but only nine of those were on target. The visiting goalkeeper made eight saves.
Västerås returned to Allsvenskan after one season in Superettan and are currently sixth with 38 points. They have not been overawed by the top sides. In early August they lost 0-6 away to Djurgården, but won the reverse fixture at home a week later. Later in the month they also beat Häcken away. Those two opponents are currently second and fourth. Even so, Västerås are at their strongest at home: they have kept a clean sheet in six of their last seven Allsvenskan home matches. That was the case again last round, when Mjällby left without scoring and without a point.

Halmstads Team Overview
In their previous Allsvenskan match at home, Halmstad lost 0-1 to Hammarby. The hosts had 29% possession, managed five shots without a single one on target, while the visitors had 23 shots.
Halmstad have gone 12 consecutive Allsvenskan away matches without a win - the entire season. A change of manager has not helped. In May, with the club on two points after six rounds, Stuart Baxter returned to take charge, having previously managed the club between 1988 and 1991. Under him, Halmstad have picked up a further 12 points from 18 matches but have not risen above 15th place.
In the last round, the team came away with nothing even at home, despite coming close to holding Hammarby - third in the table - to a draw. In the 91st minute, goalkeeper Tim Rönning saved a long-range effort, but Hammarby defender Noah Persson turned in the rebound. "Unfortunately, the ball bounced the wrong way," the goalkeeper admitted.

Corners Prediction
At home, Westeros don't take many corners: they had six or more in just one of their last seven matches. The bet holds even if the hosts take exactly five. The pick is Westeros Team Total Corners - Under 5.5.
Correct Score Prediction
The most likely outcomes for the match are: 1-0 (13.84%), 2-0 (11.11%), and 1-1 (10.58%). A narrow 1-0 win for Westeros is considered the most probable result.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Västerås's last seven home matches in Allsvenskan have been low-scoring affairs, with fewer than three goals in each. Halmstad are unlikely to change that, having scored more than one goal in just one of their 12 away matches this season. We expect Friday's game to follow the same pattern. The bet is Total Goals - Under 3.5. Predicted score: 2-0.
