Elfsborg have another solid season. They are fifth on the table, but with only three points fewer than the place that would give them the Conference League qualifications next season. However, to achieve any of their goals, Elfsborg have to play significantly better, as Oscar Hiljemark's team has won only one of the last five matches. In the previous game, Elfsborg lost 1-0 on the road against Djurgarden. The home side ended the last match with an xG of 1.88, while the guests had only 0.65, so it is no wonder Elfsborg left the pitch empty-handed.
After two years in which Goteborg struggled to survive in Allsvenskan, they are a mid-table team in 2025. Goteborg even have some chances for the places in the Conference League qualifications, but Stefan Billborn's team needs to have a brilliant rest of the season to achieve that. Goteborg are in good form with five wins in the last seven matches. In the previous game, they won 1-0 on the road against Sirius. Both teams had their chances, but Goteborg have done just enough to pick up all three points.
Elfsborg vs Goteborg pick: Under 2.5 goals
Elfsborg have serious problems with scoring as they scored only two goals in the last five matches. On the other hand, Goteborg scored five goals in the previous five games. We shouldn't expect more than two goals in this match.
