Elfsborg vs Hammarby Prediction and Betting Tips | July 3rd 2023

Round 13 of the Swedish Allsvenskan comes to an end on Monday when Elfsborg and Hammarby go head-to-head at the Borås Arena.

Di Gule are unbeaten in their last 12 home games against Marti Cifuentes’ men and will be looking to extend this dominant run.

Elfsborg turned in a performance of the highest quality as they steamrolled Varbergs BoIS 6-1 in a friendly matchup last time out.

This was in keeping with their performance in the league, where they are currently on an 11-match unbeaten run, claiming nine wins and two draws since a 2-0 loss to Hacken in April’s curtain-raiser.

With 29 points from 12 matches, Jimmy Thelin’s side are currently second in the Allsvenskan table, five points behind first-placed Malmo.

Elsewhere, Hammarby picked up successive wins for the first time since March as they edged out Sirius 4-1 in last Monday’s friendly.

The Bajen now turn their attention to the Allsvenskan, where they picked up a 2-1 win over Brommapojkarna on June 9 to end their four-match winless run.

With 16 points from 13 matches, Hammarby are currently ninth in the league table but could move level with sixth-placed Brommapojkarna with all three points on Monday.
