Halmstads BK
- Halmstads BK have a miserable record of 2 points from 7 games played to sit bottom of the table in Allsvenskan 2026, but things could get worse for them on Saturday when they host an out-of-sorts Orgryte IS.
- Halmstads BK have failed to win any of their 3 Allsvenskan 2026 home matches (1 draw, 2 defeats).
- Halmstads BK have averaged just 0.67 goals scored and 2.33 conceded per home game in Allsvenskan 2026.
Orgryte IS
- 14th-placed Orgryte have picked up only 5 points from their first 7 games but remain ahead of the hosts.
- Orgryte IS have won 1 and lost 3 of their 4 Allsvenskan 2026 away matches, conceding 14 goals on the road.
- The visitors have had some positive results under Andreas Holmberg, who took over at the start of 2024, but have lost each of their last 3 away matches, conceding heavily and scoring only once.
Halmstads BK
Otso Liimatta is their most prolific attacker with two goals in six Allsvenskan 2026 appearances , while Ludvig Arvidsson has shown good vision in the attacking third with two assists in five games so far .
Orgryte IS
- Mikael Dyrestam has contributed two assists in seven Allsvenskan 2026 games and provides a good attacking outlet for his team, who like to get the ball wide and make their midfielders work the flanks.
- Dyrestam’s pacey presence up front has been a problem for opponents, but Orgryte have struggled to score, bar the two goals provided by Christoffer Styffe in his last three appearances.
- Orgryte’s top scorer is Anton Andreasson with a pair of goals in seven games and he will be the main danger for the home team’s defence.
Prediction
- So the two teams are in similar positions and desperate for a win, but we are taking Halmstad to do the job this weekend because the hosts should be better organised and have a home-field advantage.
- However, Orgryte IS are struggling and not in the kind of form that suggests they can beat the odds to win this match.
