Vasteras vs Norrkoping Prediction and Betting Tips | July 14th 2024

Vasteras play host to Norrkoping at the Hitachi Energy Arena in round 14 of Swedish Allsvenskan on Sunday. The two sides are separated by just three points at the wrong end of the table and will be looking to secure a morale-boosting victory.

Vasteras were sent crashing back to earth last Monday when they suffered a 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Hacken.

Before that, Kalle Karlsson’s men snapped their six-match winless streak on June 2 courtesy of an emphatic 4-0 victory over Kalmar at the Guldfågeln Arena.

While Vasteras will be looking to return to winning ways, they have struggled for results at home, where they have picked up just one point in their last four matches.

Norrkoping, on the other hand, were left empty-handed yet again as they fell to a loss to Djurgarden at the Nya Parken last Monday.

Andreas Alm’s side have now lost five games on the bounce and have failed to win their last eight matches across all competitions, losing seven and claiming one draw since the start of May.

This dire run of results has seen Norrkoping plunge to 15th place in the Allsvenskan table, just three points and one place above Sunday’s hosts, who are currently rooted to the bottom of the pile.
