GAIS will be looking to maintain their impressive start to the 2024 Swedish top flight campaign when they travel to Halmstads Bk for matchday 12 this weekend.

The hosts had a great start to the campaign, picking up four wins from their first six encounters but that form has died down. Magnus Haglund’s side come into this weekend’s game with four defeats from their last five league games and conceded at least two goals in as many games.

GAIS have already given their fans plenty to chair just eleven games into the season. The visitors gained promotion after finishing first in the second division South last season. Many expected them to struggle with top flight football, but no signs of that have been seen, with the team sitting in the top three at the moment. They have beaten the likes of Varnamo, Elfsborg, Mjallby, Goteborg and Hacken and I will be looking to add Halmstads to the list this weekend.

Betting Tips Halmstads BK vs GAIS: Under 3.5 goals

Halmstads have just one clean sheet from their last seven games, but their record defensively is good against GAIS. The hosts finished five of the last six meetings between the two sides at this ground, and bets on under 3.5 goals were won in four of those matches.

GAIS have been good both offensively and defensively so far this season. Only the top two sides Malmo and Djurgarden have conceded fewer goals than the Mackerels, and they didn’t ship more than one goal in each of their last six games. All six encounters ended with under three goals.

• Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals
