IFK Värnamo
LLLDDL 📉
IFK Värnamo will be hoping to bounce back here after the 2-0 Allsvenskan defeat in their last game at the hands of BK Häcken.
In that game, IFK Värnamo had 39% possession and 4 shots at goal with 1 of them on target. BK Hacken had 19 attempts at goal with 5 of them on target. Samuel Leach Holm (32', 88') was the scorer for BK Häcken.
It’s been all too rare in recent times that IFK Värnamo have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that IFK Värnamo have been scored against in 6 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 14 goals along the way. We shall soon see if that trend can be continued on here.
Heading into this fixture, IFK Värnamo are without a home win in the past 8 matches in the league. It's been disappointing.
Östers IF
LLLLWD

The numbers tell their own story, and Östers IF have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 8 goals in all. Defensively, Östers IF can certainly do much better.
Heading into this fixture, Östers IF have not beaten IFK Värnamo when they have played them away from home in the previous 4 league games. Not the best of away records.
