Prediction
- At odds of 1.73, Hammarby are too short for my eye here, while Järnkaminerna are at 4.2 and the draw is 3.95, so I'm leaning towards backing the home side to nick this one.
- However, there is no real value in the game outcome market, so the only play is to take Over 2.5 goals at 1.53.
