Thursday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to the Swedish Allsvenskan, and I’ve highlighted one fixture that appeals to me for goals.
⚽️ Elfsborg vs IFK Norrkoping
🇸🇪 Allsvenskan
⏰ Thursday 19 September, 18:00
Elfsborg will look to potentially move up into third in the Allsvenskan table tomorrow evening as they welcome 11th-placed Norrkoping to the Boras Arena in a fixture that appeals to me for goals.
Oscar Hiljemark’s hosts are the third-highest scorers in the Allsvenskan, slamming in 43 goals across their opening 22 matches, with 28 (65%) of them coming on home soil.
Di Gule have found the back of the net in each of their opening 11 league outings in front of their supporters – notching on multiple occasions in an impressive nine (82%) of them – and will be confident of adding to their impressive goal tally against a Norrköping backline that has registered a solitary shutout across their opening 11 road trips, shipping 24 goals.
Andreas Alm’s visitors have scored 29 goals across their opening 22 matches in the Swedish top flight this term, with 12 (41%) of them coming on their travels.
Despite sitting in 11th, IFK have found the back of the net in all bar two of their league outings – including in each of their previous 10 on their travels – and will look to continue their impressive record of finding the back of the net against an Elfsborg defence that has only registered five clean sheets in the league this season.
