- Competition: Sweden - Ettan Sodra
- Date: Thursday, 26th, June 2025
- Kickoff: 18:00 UK / 19:00 CEST
- Venue: Vapenvallen (Huskvarna)
Eager to stay in the hunt for a top-two finish, Lunds BK will travel to Vapenvallen on Thursday to face bottom-dwellers Husqvarna in Swedish third-tier action.
With the season’s midpoint fast approaching, Husqvarna have emerged as the division’s basement dwellers, as their meager six-point haul and lack of creative spark suggest they are destined for a drop unless something drastic changes.
In stark contrast, Lunds BK have been performing at a high pace this season and are seriously knocking on the door of the promotion zone, as their current haul of 26 points puts them in third and leaves them a mini four-point gap to table-toppers Jonkoping.
Husqvarna vs Lunds Betting Tips : LUNDS TO WIN
There’s no denying Husqvarna’s previous dominance in this fixture with three wins from the last four meetings, but since those encounters are long in the rearview mirror, the current landscape favors a Lunds BK side riding a wave of confidence and carrying the tools to dictate terms this time around. Husqvarna’s campaign is falling apart at the seams as they have failed to register a single win since their lone triumph over Trollhattan on matchday two, plunging into a brutal 12-game winless spiral that includes nine defeats and further dims their survival hopes while cementing their position at the foot of the table with no momentum in sight. The numbers paint a grim picture of the red-lantern side’s defensive struggles, having picked the ball out of their own net 36 times across just 14 fixtures, and such leaky backline could prove to be easy pickings for a Lunds BK attack that has been firing on all cylinders with at least two goals in six straight league outings. The only real edge Husqvarna can claim at this point is the familiarity of their home ground, but it's hard to picture them causing any serious turbulence against a confident Lunds side expected to play on the front foot and ruthlessly expose every defensive crack on their way to a ninth league win that could push them closer to the promotion spots.

Husqvarna team news
Head coach Niclas Tagesson may not be dealing with injuries, but he’s still struggling to find a winning formula and is expected to shuffle his lineup once again.
However, the 55-year-old may be content with his side’s display in the 1-1 draw against Norrby, which could see him stick with the same starting eleven for the clash with title-chasing Lunds.

Lunds team news
Like their Thursday hosts, Lunds have no injury or suspension concerns, so the same squad that cruised to a dominant 3-0 win over Skovde is expected to feature again.
The 20-year-old midfielder Filip Akdemir is making a strong case for a starting role after coming on in the 81st minute and scoring a brace to seal his team’s latest league win.
