Mjällby AIF
- Mjällby AIF are 7th in the Allsvenskan 2026 table with 16 points from 11 games, just one point better off than 10th-placed Västerås SK FK who have 15 points.
- Mjällby's form is mixed with no wins in five, but they have scored 5 goals in Allsvenskan 2026 at home, while Västerås have hit 10 goals in six road games, so both teams look capable of scoring in this game.
- Mjällby have two wins and two losses at home in the Allsvenskan 2026.
Västerås SK FK
- Västerås have been much more impressive away, winning four of their six away games.
- Västerås have bounced back from a 3-2 defeat to AIK to beat Halmstads BK 3-1 away from home in the Allsvenskan 2026, which was a good response from Rubin's men.
- Mikkel Ladefoged has been prolific for Västerås, with nine goals in 11 Allsvenskan 2026 games.
Head-to-Head
The head-to-head record gives the hosts a slight edge, with Mjällby having two wins in the last three head-to-head games and a 2-1 home win in Allsvenskan 2024.
Key Players
- Aki Samuelsen has been a standout performer, taking four of Mjällby's nine goals from the last five, but the team remains reliant on Jacob Bergström, who has five Allsvenskan 2026 goals from 11 appearances.
- Mikkel Ladefoged is the danger man with nine goals in 11 Allsvenskan 2026 games, but he has taken four of the 11 Västerås goals scored in their last five, so they could be vulnerable if he is not on form.

Betting Insights
- The home side will be the favorites at 1.7, but the draw at 3.85 and the visitors at 4.45 are much more appealing odds to us.
- Both teams to score looks the best match bet here at 1.71, as both attacks have been scoring freely.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.76 also looks a live bet as Mjällby will try to play on the front foot.
Prediction
The contrasting styles should make for an interesting tempo battle on Friday with Mjällby looking to force turnovers and get at Västerås while the visitors will try and stay compact and pinch opportunities in the wide areas.
