Kalmar FF vs Djurgarden Predictions

• Only bottom side Norrkoping have conceded more goals than Kalmar
• No side has picked up more points on the road than Djurgarden
• The hosts were victorious in this meeting last season, winning 2-1

Blue Stripes can claim revenge from end-of-season loss

Djurgarden fell to a 2-1 defeat on the final day of the Allsvenskan season last year thanks to a brace from Kalmar’s Simon Skrabb but the visitors will feel confident that they can get the better of the hosts on this occasion.

The Blue Stripes have enjoyed a strong start to the campaign with 31 points from their opening 14 games, while no side possesses a stronger away record in the division than DIF, with five wins from their six league matches on their travels.

Kalmar meanwhile look a shell of the side that finished sixth in the table last season and their home form is a major reason for this, with no side picking up fewer points in front of their home fans than Kalmar’s four – tied with fellow strugglers Varnamo.

Djurgarden’s away form should see them take all three points back to Stockholm and they could be relatively untroubled in Kalmar. The hosts have failed to score in either of their last two home matches and a 2-0 final score draws some appeal.
