Hammarby vs GAIS Betting Tips: HAMMARBY TO WIN

After shockingly squandering two leads to play out a sensational 6-6 draw against Brommapojkarna on August 12, Kim Hellberg's men quickly got back on track by demolishing Vasteras 3-0 away just five days later.

Reviewing the latest results across all 16 teams in Sweden’s top division, it is clear that no team, not even leaders Malmo, can match Hammarby’s form, which has seen them collect 13 out of 15 available points from their last five league contests.

The massive rise in form has allowed Bayern to climb to the runner-up position, yet the gap between them and the leaders Malmo is an astonishing 10 points, indicating that the Stockholm club must minimize their mistakes if they wish to keep their championship hopes alive.

Their next league challenge comes against a GAIS side that has been the biggest surprise of the Allsvenskan season so far, as they remain in the hunt for a European spot, currently sitting in a fine fourth place with 31 points, just four behind third-placed Djurgarden.

Although they were viewed as potential relegation candidates, the Mackerels have left everyone in awe, especially their loyal fans, with their remarkable performance to date, but to continue their top-three chase, they must improve their road form, as they have returned empty-handed from five of their last six away games.

However, Fredrik Holmberg's squad arrives at this contest on the back of back-to-back victories, having defeated Halmstad 3-1 in the league before seeing off Trollhattan 4-2 in the Svenska Cupen, but there is no doubt that they will be put to a big test on Monday.

It is true that GAIS has been a tough nut for Hammarby over recent years, having avoided defeat in four encounters on the bounce, including a goalless draw in the reverse fixture, but the club from the Swedish capital is currently instilling more confidence, and we hope that their attacking prowess will remain high to add new three points to their tally.
