There are no dominant sides in the H2H matches between these teams, as two of the previous four meetings ended in draws. Last season, both fixtures were won by the away team. Also, it is worth noting that three of four H2H games ended with at least three goals.
Sandviken team overview
Sandviken are probably again a lower-half Superettan team. After 13 league rounds, they are only three points ahead of the relegation playoff zone. Still, Sandviken have recently improved, and it is just a matter of time before Elias Gard's team starts moving toward mid-table. Sandviken collected an impressive ten points in the last four matches. In the previous game, Gard's team played 1-1 on the road against Orebro. The teams were pretty even that time, and splitting points seemed like the best possible outcome.
Sandviken had a terrible first few months of the 2026 season, but everything changed when Elias Gard was appointed as interim head coach. Since his appointment, Sandviken have recorded three wins and a draw. Gard is only 27 years old, and he was always seen as a solution until the board finds a more experienced coach, but after an excellent start, he might stay in the position a little longer.

Helsingborg team overview
In their fourth consecutive season in Superettan, Helsingborg are again among the promotion contenders. The best team in the competition, Norrkoping, is only six points above them, and Helsingborg hopes for a return to Allsvenskan. They had some issues recently, but Stevie Grieve's team won their last two matches and seems to be on the right track again. In the most recent outing, Helsingborg won 5-2 at home against Sundsvall. The hosts dominated, especially in the second half, and eventually secured a comfortable victory.
Helsingborg's head coach, Stevie Grieve, was very satisfied after a big victory in the previous match. He commented, "We conceded a goal on a set piece. We have to analyze what went wrong. But we responded well to that. In the second half, we were phenomenal. I am really pleased."
Helsingborg are offensively one of the best teams in Superettan, but they are struggling on defense and will have to improve that during the summer transfer window. Interestingly, while being the second-best attacking team, Grieve's team is also the third-worst defensive side.
