Halmstad vs Hammarby Prediction & Betting Tips (25 April)

A disappointing run of six defeats in eight trips suggests that Hammarby are not the best of travellers, with a total of 16 goals being conceded across these losses. That must be music to the ears of a Halmstad outfit that has been cooking with some serious gas recently, as the title-chasers have netted 20 times on the way to securing 18 points from a possible 21.

Under 2.5 goals has been the order of the day in 10 of the 13 top-flight home matches played by Halmstad so far this season, meaning that excitement has been somewhat lacking. Given that ten of the last 10 of the Allsvenskan games involving Hammarby, including eight in a row of late, have served up two goals or fewer, a thriller seems unlikely.

Hammarby are rarely involved in away games in which both teams find the net, with this being the case in just one of their previous seven trips in the Allsvenskan. It has been a similar story as far as high-flying Halmstad are concerned on their own patch of late, as one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from ten of their last 13 encounters.
