Kalmar FF vs Djurgarden prediction 20.07.2024

• Competition: Allsvenskan
• Date: 20th July 2024
• Kickoff: 14:00 UTC +1 / 15:00 CEST 
• Venue: Guldfågeln Arena

Djurgarden continue their quest for a first Swedish top flight title in five years on Saturday when they travel Kalmar for Matchday 15 of the campaign.

The visitors have found it hard to regain the crown since the 2019-20 campaign when they won their first title in this division. Kim Bergstrand’s side finished in the top four in each of the last three seasons, and that run is set to be extended this season. But with Djurgarden just four points below league leaders Malmö with a game in hand, their fans have their eyes set on the title this time.

Meanwhile, the major focus of Kalmar in recent years has been avoiding relegation. The Red brothers finished in the top six in each of the last three campaigns, but that run is unlikely to be repeated this season. Henrik Jensen’s men currently sit in the bottom three and suffered a defeat in three of their last four outings.

Betting Tips Kalmar FF vs Djurgarden: Djurgarden to win

Kalmar have been poor both offensively and defensively lately. The hosts failed to score in three of their last four league encounters and conceded averagely two goals per game in that spell.

Djurgarden enter this week’s game boasting back to back wins after beating the likes of Norrkoping and Varnamo 3-1 and 1-0, respectively. The visitors also have a decent record against Kalmar.

They won two of the last three meetings between the two sides, scoring exactly three goals in each game, and I fancy a similar outcome on Friday afternoon.
