Halmstad completed a league double over Häcken in 2024, but Häcken responded by winning 4-1 in last season's corresponding fixture before the reverse meeting ended goalless.
Halmstads team overview
It has been a difficult campaign for Halmstad, who sit bottom of the Allsvenskan standings after collecting just six points from their opening 12 matches. They have managed only one league victory so far while conceding 26 goals, the second-worst defensive record in the division.
Omar Faraj has been their main attacking outlet, while the home crowd at Örjans Vall will hope the team can rediscover the resilience that has occasionally troubled stronger opponents.
There is some encouraging news regarding squad availability. Halmstad are expected to have a fully fit squad available, with no major injury concerns or suspensions reported ahead of Sunday's encounter.

Hacken team overview
Häcken travel to Halmstad sitting third in the table after another solid start to the season. The Gothenburg club have collected 20 points from their opening 12 fixtures and remain among the league's highest-scoring teams (25 goals scored) despite showing occasional defensive vulnerabilities.
Both teams have scored in nine of Häcken's last ten league matches, highlighting both their attacking quality and their tendency to leave opportunities for opponents.
The visitors will, however, be without several players. Adam Lundqvist is suspended, while Filip Öhman, Ben Engdahl and experienced goalkeeper Etrit Berisha are all unavailable through injury.

Prediction
Both Teams to Score looks like a strong option, with Häcken seeing BTTS land in nine of their last ten Allsvenskan matches. Halmstad should create opportunities on home soil, while Häcken's fourth-best attack makes them strong favourites to get on the scoresheet themselves.
Prediction: Both Teams to Score (BTTS).
Three reasons we expect BTTS
- Häcken's attacking consistency. Häcken have scored in each of their last 12 Allsvenskan matches.
- Halmstad's defensive problems. The hosts have struggled to keep opponents out this season, conceding 26 goals in 12 league matches.
- Häcken's defensive vulnerabilities. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 9 of their last 10 Allsvenskan fixtures.
