Sirius take on the visitors Mjallby in the round 16 match of Swedish Allsvenskan. The match will be played on Monday, July 24th at Studenternas IP (Uppsala).
Sirius currently sit in the 11th position in the top-tier Swedish league table, just four points away from the relegation zone. The team can be described as mediocre in terms of its level, so expecting consistent results from them is not advisable. Successful matches are followed by unsuccessful ones. However, matches involving "blue and black" are almost never dull. Sirius are capable of scoring a couple of goals against their opponents, as seen in matches against Varnamo (2-0), Goteborg (2-0), or Degerfors (3-0). On the other hand, they can also concede over 2.5 goals, as shown in matches against Malmo (0-3) or Hammarby (1-2).

Mjallby are a neighbor of Sirius in the league table and has only two points more. They also lack stability in terms of results. In the last four rounds, the team played a draw against Kalmar (1-1), where they narrowly missed hitting over 2.5 goals. They also secured a victory against Malmo with a total over (2-1), even when playing away. However, they suffered defeats against Norrkoping (1-2) and Hacken (0-3), conceding three goals in both matches. Like Sirius, Mjallby's defense is not particularly reliable, but they are capable of creating scoring opportunities.
On the field, two evenly matched teams from the league table will face off. The outcome of the match could swing either way. However, this match is unlikely to be boring. Both the hosts and the visitors are capable of scoring 1-2 goals and hitting over 2.5 goals together. That's why I'm opting for this betting option. It has been successful in the last three matches involving Sirius and in three out of the last four matches involving Mjallby. Additionally, in four out of the previous five head-to-head meetings between these teams, they have reached the required total goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
