Visitors contemplating Superettan defeat?

There's just 2 points separating the two clubs as tenth place AFC Eskilstuna get set to host 14th place Falkenbergs.

It's never easy to make accurate forecasts about games like this but AFC Eskilstuna are tipped to produce a result. A look into some of the data explains why.

For AFC Eskilstuna to come through this challenge they'll need to build on the positives of their recent displays. The hosts have bagged 8 home wins from their last 10 games. Having lesser fortunes than expected, the visitors have been defeated in 11 of their last 16 matches home and away. While they've obviously had different opposition, that doesn't sound like the record of a team that will be confident about winning this.

These home players have enjoyed a hot streak on their own paddock. AFC Eskilstuna scored three or more goals in 3 of their recent 5 home matches while their defensive line also deserves some props. They have only conceded an average of 0.5 goals over their last 11 games at home. You can see why this home side can keep their rivals on the back foot.

Lately Falkenbergs haven't had a solid platform in their 18-yard box. They have conceded three or more goals in 7 of their last 16 matches.

It would be bizarre to suggest that the favourites are a banker here. It's possible that the two sides cancel each other out in a battle of attrition. It's not a strong view so maybe give it a miss but the No BTTS bet could be sensible. As far as the total goals line goes, it's Over 2.5 Goals for this one considering the odds on offer.
