Helsingborg vs Skovde Prediction 01.06.2023

• Competition: Sweden - Superettan
• Date: Thursday, 1st, June 2023
• Kickoff: 18:00 UK / 19.00 CEST
• Venue: Olympia (Helsingborg)

Helsingborg is not even a pale shadow of the former club and that is clear as day to the fans. They walk from the second to the first tier in recent years and so in a circle. Last season they left the best society in Sweden, and this year they could experience a total eclipse and move to a lower rank. After the opening nine rounds, The Reds are second from behind with a miserable five points, which is six points less than Braga, who is in the last position outside the danger zone.

Last year, Skovde left a strong impression in their debut season in the second tier of Swedish football and finished in a very nice fifth position. However, Tobias Linderoth's team are playing incomparably poorly since the start of the 22/23 campaign and it seems that they have already now highlighted the earlier candidacy for relegation from the league and return to reality. Skovde managed to win only two points from the first nine rounds and it's no wonder they are convincingly last in the table - almost a double-digit deficit from the safe zone.

Helsingborg vs Skovde Betting Tips: Team1 to Win

The two teams have never met before, not even in friendly matches. In their first official clash, Helsingborg wears the epithet of favorites and we hope they will justify it, because they have a much better and more experienced playing staff.

Few could have expected that Helsingborg, which before the start of the season was considered one of the favorites for promotion, would experience such a result breakdown. The performance of only one achieved victory for a team that has won the Swedish championship five times in its history can be characterized as catastrophic.

After that only triumph so far in the season of 2-1 over the currently third-placed GAIS, The Reds tied four games without success (two draws and two defeats). Helsingborg need better results as soon as possible. Six points separate them from the last safe position, so every next game is marked as "win or die" for them.

We believe that the duel on Thursday is a real opportunity for the former first league side to come out of this gloomy period of crisis. Their rival, Skovde, is by far the weakest team in the second division and the main candidate for relegation from the same. They are winless in the first nine rounds and there is no end in sight to these results.

What can we say about the results on the side, except that they are criminally bad. Tobias Linderoth's team has lost all five visits since the start of the season, conceding an average of two goals per match (11 in total). They are harmless in attack with only two goals scored, so HIF must take this data at all costs and win three points worth gold.
