After losing the title in dramatic fashion in the 2023 season, Elfsborg had a pretty bad following season, finishing 7th. That is their worst placement during the previous five seasons! This year, after the 11th round, they were at the top. However, after winning one point in the last two games against Varnamo and Hammarby, they dropped to 4th place. Currently, they are only five points away from the top spot, but with a game played less. Now, they have the opportunity to win against an out-of-form Hacken and close the gap between them and the top.
Hacken's results constantly declined after they won the title in 2022. And this season, they are looking more like a relegation candidate than a team that should battle for Europe. Right now, they are in 10th place with 15 points from 13 matches. The popular Wasps are just two points away from the relegation playout and three away from direct relegation! However, the Wasps managed to secure the Cup title and an appearance in the Europa League, and this season can already be called a success if they avoid dropping further on the league's table.
Elfsborg vs Hacken pick: Elfsborg to win
Elfsborg won just one point in the last two games but did great before them, winning five in a row and being amazing offensively - scoring 15 goals (three per game). Also, at home, Elfsborg won five out of seven games - 71.4%.
Hacken lost back-to-back games against Malmo (3:0) and GAIS (3:1) and were completely outplayed by the opponents. If we take a look at their road games recently, we can see that they have struggled to even score a goal. In the last three (league games) they won one point while scoring just one goal!
These teams met in the friendly match before the start of the season, with Elfsborg winning 5:1. Additionally, Elfsborg won three of the last four h2h games in all competitions.
Considering the trend in the previous h2h games, Elfsborg's home record, and Hacken's terrible last two games, we believe the hosts are much closer to winning the upcoming game.

Elfsborg team news
After a goalless draw with IFK Varnamo, coach Oscar Hiljemark spoke to the media. He was unhappy with the result but with the performance as well. "I think we're bad from the first minute to the last minute. We can be happy that we get a point today," the coach added.
Goalkeeper Isak Pettersson should be the only injured player on the team.

Hacken team news
Midfielder Mikkel Rygaard suffered an injury in the previous game against GAIS and had to leave the field 12 minutes before the end of the game. It is a big blow for the team because he has been one of their best players this season. Considering they have (potentially) nine more players out with an injury, it is a massive problem.
On a positive note, John Dembe and Silas Andersen served their suspension in the previous game and will be available.
