09/17/2026 438

Degerfors IF face a formidable challenge when they host Hammarby IF at Stora Valla. With the home side looking to break a long-standing poor run against their visitors, all eyes will be on whether Degerfors can halt Hammarby’s momentum in the Allsvenskan.

Recent Form

Degerfors IF have shown mixed form in their last 6 league games, winning 3 and losing 3, with an average of 1.67 goals scored and 1.17 conceded. At home, they've fared slightly better, taking two wins from their last three matches, conceding just 0.33 goals on average per home affair. However, these brief flashes of positivity have not consistently translated into sustained upward momentum.

Hammarby IF, in contrast, have been in impressive form, picking up 4 wins and a draw from their last 6 league outings while scoring at a rate of 2.5 goals per game. Their last three matches away from home include a loss, a win, and a draw, but the underlying stats reflect dominance: an average of 22.5 shots per game and more than 64% possession during that span.

Recent History

Head-to-head matchups have been heavily tilted in Hammarby’s favor. Degerfors haven't won in their last 4 home matches against Hammarby, drawing 2 and losing 2. Further, Degerfors have lost 7 of their last 9 meetings with Hammarby, with 56% of those defeats coming by a margin of 2 or more goals.

In their most recent contest, Hammarby ran out comprehensive 4-0 winners – a result that starkly underscores the current gulf between the two teams.

Overall Performance

Sitting 14th in the standings, Degerfors IF have amassed just 19 goals from 21 league matches, conceding 33. Their win rate stands at less than 24%, with a worrying average of only 0.9 goals per game and a concerning -14 goal difference.

Hammarby IF enter this fixture 3rd in the league. Their numbers are fearsome: 48 goals scored (2.29 per game average), just 20 conceded, and a healthy +28 goal difference. Combining offensive potency with defensive solidity, Hammarby have failed to lose in 82% of their last 11 Allsvenskan fixtures.

Main Trends

Degerfors IF are winless in 80% of their last 20 home games across all competitions and have lost 5 of their last 10 home matches. Their difficulties against Hammarby are evident not just in results, but also in the margin of those losses.

Meanwhile, Hammarby have won 17 of their last 20 league home matches and have managed clean sheets in 55% of their last 40 home games. Away, their strong possession and attacking metrics continue to translate into results as they’ve been undefeated in 5 of their last 6 all-competition matches.
