Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner here, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Halmstads and GAIS will score 2 or more goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Stuart William Baxter or Fredrik Holmberg has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s of late either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.25 equating to about a 76% probability.

Goal Statistics

Goals have been difficult to come by for Halmstads BK of late. It has been 5 Allsvenskan games since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.2 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Sunday afternoon against GAIS.

GAIS's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday afternoon, not least because Halmstads BK have conceded in each of their last 6 Allsvenskan games. A PG of 1.6 for F. Holmberg's side suggests that run should continue.
