Allsvenskan Predictions: Malmö FF vs Hammarby

Details:

The day has come. Swedish football is finally kicked off on Saturday when we are invited to a summit directly in the match between the reigning champions Malmö FF and the cup finalists Hammarby.

Hammarby has a successful cup adventure behind them - which is not over either as they have advanced to the final. What of course speaks against Bajen here is that they only got the week to rest after the energy-depleting match against Djurgården - and where they played against Trelleborg just 3 days before that. Bajen went on his knees in these matches and especially against DIF, as the players did not recover after the mass outburst of Covid in the squad.

There is a risk that there will be soup cod here. At the same time, you can not meet Malmö away in a better position than now is the feeling, so I actually think Bajen comes with a little hope of being able to win. What also benefits Bajen here is that this year they seem to have put together a squad that really fights for each other and where there are types of leaders in the team - something they really lacked before - think mainly of Selmani and Fjoluson. I can definitely see Bajen scoring both one and two goals here. But I can also see them conceding three goals

I expect to see a somewhat wait-and-see effort from both sides, but in the end I expect Malmö FF to be there as the winner. I think the home ground advantage, the quality and the winning mentality make the difference. Malmö win.
