Elfsborg take on the visitors Hammarby in the round 12 match of Swedish Allsvenskan. The match will be played on Saturday, May 31st at Borås Arena (Borås).
Elfsborg are aiming for maximum results. The Elegants have often shown solid football. While they haven’t lifted a trophy in quite some time, they finished as runners-up in 2023 and managed a respectable showing in the group stage of this season’s Europa League. However, in the 2024 Allsvenskan, they only managed to finish seventh. Under Oscar Hiljemark, though, the team has made visible progress. They stumbled early in the season and lost to AIK, but have been able to pick up wins in most of their other matches. In the most recent round, they earned a convincing 4-1 victory over Halmstad. With 5 wins in their last 6 games, Elfsborg are one of the in-form teams in the league.

Hammarby have only one league title to their name, and that was many years ago. However, in recent years they’ve put up respectable performances. They won the Swedish Cup for the first time in 2021 and reached the final again the following year. Last season was also a solid campaign — Malmö were untouchable at the top, but Hammarby edged out AIK for second place on goal difference. This year, they've mostly avoided defeats — losing only to Mjällby — but have dropped points regularly through draws. That same Mjällby side defeated them again not long ago. However, Hammarby responded with a narrow but important 1-0 win over Degerfors in their last match, breaking a two-match winless run.
Elfsborg and Hammarby have exchanged results in recent meetings — Elfsborg won twice, then Hammarby did the same, with their latest clash ending in a draw. These sides are fairly evenly matched on paper. But the home team has shown more consistency in recent weeks — the smart pick is Elfsborg to win with a 0 handicap (draw no bet).
Prediction for the match: Elgsborg to win with 0.0 handicap.
