Swedish Cup 20/6

[Burran]

Kalmar -1 (3-way hcp) 1.61@Bet365
Kalmar is fielding a strong team against Skövde in the Cup. Skövde has beaten Assyriska and Gais in the cup so far, but now their journey will end. Kalmar wants to do well in the cup and I'm sure they'll win this one. A 2 goal win is very possible.

Sundsvall+0.25 1.93@Canbet
Häcken is troubled with injuries. They have 2 straight losses in the league against opponents which they usually should beat. Sundsvall hasn't been good away so far, but they won this meeting in the league after two late goals and since they don't have the same injury situation as Häcken I think they have a good chance here.

I was kind of wondering about the Kalmar game...they're off 5-1 and 5-2 cup wins, Skovde two 2-1 wins...the overs are 3.5 -118, which seems borderline. Kalmar -2, thinking of taking the +2 handicap on Skovde at +114...wonder if they can keep it close...?

Kalmar has basically the same squad as they had against Göteborg in the league on Sunday. I don't see Skövde having much of a chance here, but u never know. It's swedish football we're talking about

68 minute..
Skovde - Kalmar
1 - 1
Kalmar is really just catastrophic this season, terrible.. . That's incredible considering their performance last season.

Hopefully they can still win the match - but considering the league difference they should have been at least 2-3 goals ahead already.


EDITED:
FT 2-2 :-((((

Kalmar ******s :-/ How I wish they get where they deserve to be.. down the table to fight for staying in the 1st league..

...and hopefully they lose in the extra time!

I didn't end up taking it, they managed the 3.5 with an 88th minute goal conceded...I don't know, I'd like to be able to find the nerve to back the dog in these situations, but just couldn't pull the trigger. I just thought a 3-goal win at this stage of the competition was a lot to ask, ask the money was still flowing toward Kalmar even with the handicap. That should have told me something right there...

You didn't scare me away, if I'd put something on it it's be my fourth bet of the day, too many. I just usually when given a choice between overs at -125 and a real dog like Skovde at better than evens, I do the "safe" thing and take the overs...and get a push instead of a win, like today. Takes more nerve than I have, usually. Maybe if I had more money...
