Halmstad vs AIK Predictions

• There have been 3+ goals in four successive Halmstad home matches
• AIK’s last eight fixtures have all contained at least three strikes
• Ahead of this round, AIK have the joint-second worst defence in the Allsvenskan

Can Halmstad land a blow on home soil?

Halmstad’s form is very worrying, as they head into this game having lost five of their last seven league games, conceding at least two goals in each defeat.

In fact, there have been three or more strikes in seven of their last nine Allsvenskan fixtures, which highlights the excitement there has been at both ends of the field.

Indeed, Magnus Haglund’s side have scored 18 and conceded 24 in 13 matches so far, an average in excess of three per game.

AIK’s defensive troubles

Incredibly, though, AIK’s record at the back is even worse, as they head into this fixture having conceded 29 times already, giving them the joint-second worst defensive record ahead of this round.

Their lat eight outings have all contained at least three goals, including a 6-1 reversal at Elfsborg and 4-1 thrashing at the hands of Hacken.

Both of those matches have been on the road, where they have worryingly lost four in a row, conceding 17 times in the process.

I predict that there will be three or more goals in this game, with 2-1 to the hosts my correct score prediction.
