Sweden - Allsvenskan (14-17 April 07)

[G:G]

Good ones, Meatman

My weekend was ok too, Sylvia managed 2-2 and got me 2/3.

On to today:

Elfsborg (-0.5) @ 2.09 (Expekt).
Örebro are newcomers, they got a draw, 0-0, away to gefle in their first match, a result I think they are pleased with. Elfsborg got 1-1 at home to Malmö, not a bad result, but I don't think Elfsborg are happy with their performance, they looked rather slow on the midfield and their only attacker Keene did not get many good passes to make something of. Today I think Elfsborg will bounce back and show that they are both champions and contenders to become champions this season. They have enough quality and individually skilled players to beat Örebro no doubt, and I find 2.09 for Elfsborg a price worth trying. They often played good away from home last season (6-6-1), and I hope that won't change today.

IFK Göteborg - AIK

Under 2.5 goals @ 1.80 and AIK + 0.25 @ 1.72
This is a very prestigious match between two classic teams in Sweden, there's always lots of emotion involved. To me IFK looks a bit like last season, pretty solid team that are hard to beat but also lacks a bit of creativity and skill to win enough matches to be a top team. They got 1-1 away to Trelleborg in their first match, played ok in the 1st half but poor in the 2nd. AIK lost 0-1 to Kalmar, were secure in the defence, did not allow Kalmar to create almost any chances, but were very toothless in their attacking, had a very tough time to even come close to scoring opportunities. I think this match will be a tough battle with two teams looking to win the midfield, but I doubt there will be many goals.
I do think that AIK should be rated higher than IFK though, and I also think that IFK's way of playing suits AIK's defence well, IFK do not have the fast attacking and quick passing that would give AIK big problems. If AIK can better their own passing and keep the ball on the gound some more today they may very well sneak away with a win here.

IFK Göteborg - AIK


Player to score most (expekt):

George Mourad (IFK) 4,05
Equal 1,70
Miran Burgic (AIK) 4,05



Miran Burgic will start for AIK and George Mourad isn't in IFK's squad due to injury. Don't really know if there's any value, but don't put your money on Mourad

[rurfors]

And Burgic scored 1-1

[G:G]

Elfsborg could not keep 1-0,

IFK Göteborg - AIK 1-2.

Not very good for betting, 1/3, but I'm ok with AIK winning!

Hey! Watch it

I think Göteborg can look forward to a tough season, they lack speed and creativity just as much as last season.
