Preview

Match preview

Djurgardens IF welcome IF Elfsborg to Stockholm for an important Allsvenskan encounter between two sides occupying top-four positions. The hosts enter this match second in the table with 41 points, carrying momentum from a five-match winning streak across all competitions and an attack that has generated 44 league goals.

IF Elfsborg sit fourth with 34 points and bring a balanced record on the road, having recorded three wins, four draws, and three losses across ten away fixtures. They secured a 2-1 home victory in the reverse fixture against Djurgardens earlier in the campaign, highlighting their ability to compete directly with the top sides.

Djurgardens will have to manage without the suspended C. Almyras and injured A. Stahl, while Elfsborg have several inactive squad members. With the hosts averaging 2.7 goals per home match and Elfsborg frequently earning draws on their travels, a closely contested matchup is expected.

Double Chance

Djurgardens IF or Draw

76%

Confidence

Djurgardens are in excellent form with five consecutive victories in all competitions, driven by a productive attack featuring K. Lien with 15 goals and Bo Asulv Hegland with 8 goals and 14 assists. While Elfsborg won the reverse fixture 2-1 and are capable of testing the hosts, their four draws in ten away outings indicate they often settle for shared points. Backing Djurgardens to avoid defeat accounts for both their home strength and Elfsborg's competitive resilience.
