Predictions & Betting Tips

Osters IF

• Osters IF have won one and lost one of their last two home games.
• Osters IF are in a desperate position coming into this game and they need to take all three points if they are to pull themselves out of the relegation zone, which is one of the reasons this Osters IF vs Halmstads BK betting tips preview will be so closely contested.
• They sit 14th in Allsvenskan 2025 with just 22 points from 25 games.
• Osters are a high-intensity, transition-based team who like to press and get the ball back with an energetic midfield trio, but they have been vulnerable defensively, leaving space for opponents in front of their defence and struggling to get their own shape in place.
• Alibek Aliev is Osters IF’s top goalscorer with five goals in 24 Allsvenskan 2025 appearances and will be a focal point of their attack.

Halmstads BK

• Halmstads BK have won two of their last three away games.
• Halmstads BK are in much better shape, sitting 12th with 28 points from 25 games, holding a narrow cushion above the drop.
• Lindholm has been much more pragmatic in his setup, looking for structure first and foremost, and then trying to hurt teams with zonal marking when they press.
• It is working so far, with Halmstads winning three, drawing one and losing one of their five games under his stewardship, although they have scored just five times in those matches.
• Yannick Agnero is Halmstads BK's top scorer with five in 19 appearances but the visitors’ front-line have not always been the most prolific, although Villiam Granath has hit form in recent games, scoring two of those five in the last five.
