Västerås SK and Halmstad meet in clearly contrasting form. The hosts closed out their last match with a 1-0 win over a team in the league, while the visitors have just lost 0-1 at home and have lost two in a row in the league. Västerås SK have picked up wins at intervals over their last five matches, and importantly have won without much suspense in several of them. Halmstad have had a really tough season, winning only three of 24 matches, and their defence is the area that has let points slip away often. They score little but concede a lot, and their away form is even less stable. This game should see the hosts dominate possession and push high, while Halmstad sit back and wait to counter. If Västerås SK take the lead first, the game will open up for the hosts to push on, and there is a chance they finish with a clear margin. The first thing to watch after kick-off is how quickly the hosts can impose their game before the visitors settle.
