BetGenius backs No (Both Teams to Score) at 64% confidence — a solid call. Total goals: Under 2.5 Goals.
IF Elfsborg welcome Degerfors IF to Borås for matchday 19 of the Allsvenskan, with both clubs operating at opposite ends of the standings. The hosts sit in 5th place with 28 points from 18 matches, entering this fixture on a positive run of form that includes four victories and a draw in their last five outings across all competitions. Elfsborg have established a dependable foundation on their home ground, posting four wins and three draws from nine league fixtures while remaining consistent in attack.
Degerfors IF, by contrast, occupy 14th position in the relegation playoff spot with 16 points from 18 matches. The visitors have struggled for consistency over the campaign, accumulating 10 league defeats and conceding 29 goals overall. Away from home, Degerfors have been beaten five times in nine matches, conceding 15 goals (1.7 per match) and failing to score in four of those road fixtures.
Head-to-head history also tilts toward the hosts, with Elfsborg having won the previous league encounter between these two sides 1-0 in April 2026. While Elfsborg must navigate absences including the suspended S. Olsson and injured P. Frick, Degerfors also travel without defender J. Pikkarainen due to a knee injury.
Combined scoring rate: 2.6 goals per game (IF Elfsborg at home plus Degerfors IF away).
