Kalmar vs Elfsborg Match Preview

Kalmar lost last time out away at Malmo to make it back-to-back defeats in the league. They have had a slow start to the season with just two victories from ten though they have all lost just three with a massive five ending in a draw. Their games are low-scoring with just 20 netted from both ends from ten an average of two per fixture.

At the Guldfågeln Arena, it has been a mixed bag with one draw, one defeat and three finishing all-square. Pape Diouf has found the back of the net two times from his four appearances in front of his own fans this campaign. Kalmar have yet to find the back of the net in the first-half at their own ground.

Elfsborg lost 2-0 away to Djurgaarden last time out to make it two defeats in three and just one victory in the last four. They have made a decent start to the campaign with four wins, three draws and three defeats from their first ten. Seven of their ten in 2019 have gone over 2.5 goals with four of those going over 3.5.

Away from the Borås Arena, they have lost their last two going down 4-1 at Malmo and the previously mentioned 2-0 loss at Djurgaarden. They have tasted victory on the road once this season with three defeats and a draw from five. The 12 they have conceded on their travels gives them a share of the worst defensive away record in the division alongside the bottom two.

It is hard to argue with the prices on offer here which suggests little to choose between the duo other than home advantage. A better angle of attack comes in the goals market where over 2.5 goals appeals especially given the 18 goals Elfsborg have seen from their five on the road this season. This looks the sensible play while the value call is in over 3.5 goals.
