Both teams expected to score when Norrkoping host Goteborg
3521

Norrkoping and Goteborg will both be hoping to climb the Allsvenskan table when they go head-to-head at Norrkoping’s Nya Parken on Monday night.

The two sides are separated by five points in the standings, with seventh-place Goteborg leading eleventh-place Norrkoping.

Goteborg find themselves seven points shy of the top three, while Norrkoping sit six points clear of the bottom three. On that account, it’s all to play for in Ostergotland.

Norrkoping head into Monday’s clash on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Malmo. They only managed to register one shot on target, while Malmo racked up 22 attempts.

As a result, Norrkoping have failed to win any of their past six Allsvenskan games – registering three draws and three losses in that process.

It is also worth pointing out that Norrkoping have managed to win just one of their previous seven league encounters.

If they carry on the way they’re going, they could find themselves struggling to avoid relegation come the end of the season.

Meanwhile, Goteborg drew 1-1 with Mjallby last time out. Despite chalking up 41% and four shots on target, they managed to hold on for a point.

Goteborg endured a wretched six-game winless streak between April and May, recording two draws and four defeats along the way.

They have bounced back since then, however, winning three of their previous five Allsvenskan clashes to climb the standings.

Although Goteborg are the joint-lowest scorers in the top seven, only four sides have conceded fewer goals this season.

Head-to-head: Goteborg have only managed to win three of their previous 16 league meetings with Norrkoping.

Each of the past four Allsvenskan meetings between Goteborg and Norrkoping have produced over 2.5 goals, so we should see plenty of action on Monday.

Team news: Norrkoping midfielder Kristoffer Khazeni looks set to miss Monday’s clash after missing the majority of the campaign due to illness.

Goteborg are injury-free at the moment, meaning head coach Mikael Stahre has a full-strength squad to choose from.

Given the high-scoring nature of this fixture in recent times, we are destined to see goals at both ends of the pitch on Monday.

Forebet predicts that Norrkoping and Goteborg will combine for over 2.5 goals. As for the result, an away win looks like the most probable outcome.
