Elfsborg and Häcken meet often enough to count as a familiar pairing, and they have traded results back and forth all along. Both teams go into this match as a friendly, with no points at stake, but both have just finished their league schedule with wins on each side, so they should take it seriously enough. Elfsborg have won their last two league matches, and in their last five they have won by a margin of one goal or more in as many as three. Häcken, meanwhile, are unbeaten in three straight, but their defence still shows lapses, especially in the first half where they often start slower than their opponents. This game should open up with exchanges from the start, because both teams have attacks that score consistently. Elfsborg are likely to have more of the ball and gradually push the game toward goal, while Häcken are likely to wait for counterattacking moments and use their speed in transition.
