Is Lennart Johansson’s trophy to be awarded on Monday? All that is needed is for Mjällby to win at Gamla Ullevi. IFK Göteborg also needs the points and I dare not take a position there. It will be easier to do exactly this in the bottom meeting from Värmland instead.

Liss top tips Monday – shares SEK 65
End of game: 18.59, Monday 20/10
Halmstad can take a big step towards a new contract at Stora Valla, but instead I think they will be heavily involved in the battle for the bottom. A reborn Degerfors takes three heavy points. I like the home teams also in London and in the Basque Country. Cádiz and Sönderjyske, on the other hand, are two highly ranked teams that we will try to beat. It’s time to reach all the way up to an eighth.

Stable nail!
Match 2 (Degerfors)
The situation looked completely run for Degerfors a few weeks ago, but Henok Goitom has got his team up on nine. Seven recorded points in the last three rounds, combined with Öster’s loss on Sunday, means that DIF will move up to the qualifying spot with a win here. Then it is also only two sticks up to Halmstad on safe ground. A Straw City that stands for the resistance now. Vukojevic has been an injection in Degerfors since he joined the club and Rafferty is too good to play in the Superettan.
Halmstad has taken a couple of victories towards the end, but the squad is nothing extra and now I think that the Halians will be pushed back. If we get a first under 55 percent, it’s a reasonable spike.
Salt the peel!
Match 6 (Fredericia)
Fredericia is a newcomer who has lost a bit of momentum towards the end. A recorded point in the last five rounds means they are second jumbo in the table ahead of Monday’s battle. The defense hasn’t really been enough, but nine goals scored in five away games is not a bad result. Marcussen and IFK Göteborg-Mucolli’s big brother Agon Mucolli are two big threats who could very well find the back of the net.
Sönderjyske is not doing particularly well either and is only one point ahead of Monday’s opponent before this meeting. In addition, the hosts fell in the August meeting between the teams. Of course, the home ground matters now, but the first one seems to be marked way too high. Then all signs will join in the hope of a bang.
Brief about all matches
1. IFK Gothenburg – Mjällby 1
Mjällby received no help from AIK and thus must win at Gamla Ullevi to secure the gold already here. Expect the guests from Listerland to at least give it a try. However, IFK Göteborg will not back down. Clemmensen looks to be missing, but with his weak form in mind, that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. That Thórdarsson is suspended is all the worse, but with the crowd behind him, one is first out. However, it should be stored early and abundantly.
2. Degerfors – Halmstad 1
Degerfors and Halmstad are both fighting at the bottom and right now there is a difference of five points between the teams in favor of the Hallenians. An away win would therefore most likely mean that HBK will play in the Allsvenskan in 2026. However, I am convinced that it will be just the opposite. Degerfors has looked solid towards the end and Vukojevic is a really strong new signing. He and Rafferty make sure all the points stay at Stora Valla. One!
3. West Ham – Brentford 1
West Ham didn’t even try to attack away at Arsenal before the break. There was also a loss at Emirates. Of course, Nuno is a defensive coach, but that was something extreme. Now I believe in better games from the hosts who have quality in players like Summerville, Bowen and Paquetá. Brentford are weakened for this season and even though they have made many successful efforts, they should be considered underdogs in this capital derby. Dash from the left.
4. Alavés – Valencia 1
Valencia have defensive concerns ahead of Monday’s league meeting. Foulquier has been gone since before and before the break Diakhaby broke down. Also, Gayà is starting to look a little old. Tarrega will have to take on a lot of responsibility in defence, but he will be tested. Alavés are normally very strong here in the Basque Country and have only lost one match here since mid-April. Last year Alavés won the corresponding meeting and I really like the first one here too.
5. Cremonese – Udinese X
Cremonese got the adventure in Serie A off to a perfect start when they beat Milan in the opener. Since then, they have been difficult to beat, but before the break the hosts went on the pump for the first time and really. However, Cod against Inter is hardly something to be ashamed of. Udinese has better player material on paper with Davis at the top and Karlström in the middle. However, they have problems with goal shooting and I don’t trust the black and white visitors. Preferably all characters.
6. Sonderjyske – Fredericia 2
Fredericia won 3-2 when these teams met in August. Then Mucolli jumped in and was responsible for both goals and assists. A player who can stand for that little extra. Marcussen also has goals in him and it is above all the duo that will do it going forward. Sönderjyske has a better team on paper, but has not performed particularly well during the autumn and is now overrated. Helgard and work the right side for nice coupon cleaning.
7. Cádiz – Burgos 2
Cádiz top the Spanish second after nine rounds played despite not having played particularly good football. In terms of expected points, they should rather be a bottom team. However, the Swedish people do not seem to have a very good idea, because they mark the number one very high. Burgos is a perfectly fine team with a tip in Fer Nino. The closest they come is a narrow loss against Valladolid, but here points are within reach. Playable X2 is tested.
8. Hammarby TFF – Karlberg 1
Lastly is a match from Ettan Norra where Hammarby TFF is in need of a three-pointer. Since Nordic United only wins and wins, Hammarby must win here to stay in the fight for first place. Both punters and oddsmakers believe that. Me too, actually, but one will stick out a little too high. Karlberg has the edge in Dzudziak and should not be counted out in advance. The cleansing cross is included as a supplement to the starting set.
