Malmo FF know what's at stake, and so do IF Elfsborg.
There's barely anything between these two. Malmo FF (6th, 49 pts) and IF Elfsborg (8th, 40 pts) meet in a fixture that could shape the Allsvenskan table.
E. Ekong has been Malmo FF's spearhead, with 0 goals and 0 assists in 5 appearances. Whoever leads IF Elfsborg's line will have a job on against that profile.
Too close to call with any conviction. Malmo FF edge it at 0% but a draw (0%) is just as likely. One to tread carefully with.
The bookmakers have priced this match fairly. Our model doesn't see a big edge in the match result market.
Malmo FF will be looking to make home advantage count (W7 D4 L4 at home). IF Elfsborg's away record reads W5 D1 L9. The visitors need to start well or this could get away from them.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
Malmo FF create chances worth 1.6 a game (and give up chances worth 1.4), leaving them +0.2 a game on the balance. IF Elfsborg create 1.3 (giving up 1.9) for a balance of -0.6. The underlying numbers clearly favour Malmo FF. They're creating better chances AND giving up fewer good ones.
This doesn't look like a high-scoring one. Malmo FF average 1.5 goals per game and IF Elfsborg manage 1.5. Combined that's just 3.0. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
