Raków Czestochowa
- Raków Czestochowa have won four of their last five fixtures, so they are in good form despite the home defeat to Wisla Plock.
- Raków average 2.17 goals per game at home and concede 1.00 per match, while Hammarby average 1.67 goals away from home.
Hammarby IF
- Hammarby have won only two of their last six away games, drawing one and losing three, so there's plenty of reason to believe that Raków can win.
- Hammarby, whose boss Henrik Rydström was appointed on 6 June 2026, play a much more expansive 4-3-3 system with high pressing, width and quick vertical combinations through the half-spaces.
Key Players
Raków's most dangerous forward is Patryk Makuch, who has two goals in two games in UEFA Conference League qualification, while Paulos Abraham has three goals in his last five appearances for Hammarby and been their standout finisher in a team that has scored eight times in that run.
Betting Insights
- Raków are the minnows for this tie at 2.18, but Hammarby are 3.33 with the draw at 3.53.
- The visitors are certainly capable of getting a goal and the Over 2.5 option at 1.8 and Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.65 look good to us in this contest.
Prediction
- Both teams will feel they can win, but the bookies have it right to rate the hosts as slight favourites as they have been in better form of late.
- But the visitors have a good chance of making this close with their high pressing style, so we think a tight home win is the best option at this time.
