Elfsborg vs Mjallby Betting Tips: ELFSBORG TO WIN

Elfsborg had midweek European commitments that they concluded in sensational fashion, overturning a one-goal deficit to demolish Pafos 5-2 in Cyprus, which propelled them into the second round of the Champions League qualifiers thanks to an aggregate score of 8-2.

Before their continental adventure, Di Gule went through a dramatic Allsvenskan clash that they turned to their favor, staging an unforgettable comeback by scoring three injury-time goals to claim an eight-goal thriller victory over Hacken away from home.

On the back of back-to-back five-star displays, a resurgent Oscar Hiljemark's men will look to engineer another free-scoring performance to keep their top-three aspirations alive, as they currently sit in fifth with 22 points in hand, just six behind the third-placed team.

This is exactly where the UEFA Europa Conference League spot belongs to Mjallby, a team that has been a major surprise package this term, as they enjoy their most successful campaign since making their return to Allsvenskan four years ago in 2020.

With 29 points on the table, the club based in Halllevik holds a six-point lead over the nearest top-three challenger Hacken, which calls for extending their current run of four consecutive victories, currently the longest winning streak among any teams in the top flight.

However, it's clear that Anders Torstensson's side has not looked as convincing on the road this term, reflected in their uneven record of three wins and three defeats, having also failed to keep their rivals off the scoresheet in any of their last five straight visits.

With both sides showcasing exceptional attacking prowess, goals are a certainty, but we also believe that Elfsborg has everything needed to come out on top in what could turn into a goal-fest extravaganza. At this point, it's really hard to see Mjallby stopping the relentless Di Gule attack, especially considering they've come away empty-handed from four of their last six visits to Boras Arena. Overall, our pick is the Sunday host.
