Vasteras SK vs IFK Norrkoping Predictions

• Three of Vasterås’ last five home games have seen both teams score
• Norrkoping are on a run of ten matches without a clean sheet
  
• The visitors have seen both teams net in nine of those outings

Can Vasteras grab a vital win?

Vasteras are bottom of the Allsvenskan and have accrued merely eight points this season, hardly the return to the top flight that they would have dreamed of after a 24 year absence.

A poor defensive record is partly to blame, managing only two clean sheets from 13 attempts, despite conceding just 16 goals so far.

That shows that they are not being blown away, but the damage is being done, especially as they have been reasonably good at the other end, with three of their last five at home seeing both teams score.

Norrkoping plummeting into danger

Their visitors are in an equally sticky situation, entering this match only three points above Vasteras in the table.

Norrkoping have lost six of their last seven in the league, including four in a row, while no team in the division has conceded more than their 35 goals.

As such, nine of their last ten fixtures have seen both teams score, a sequence in which they have failed to keep a clean sheet.

I predict that both teams will net in this match, with a 1-1 stalemate my correct score prediction.
