Week 6 brings us a match on May 2nd, where Malmö FF and Hammarby will play a match in Stockholm in a meeting of these two Allsvenskan teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 7 degrees, making for an unpleasant day. Hammarby is fresh off their 3-0 shutout win against Sirius. Williot Swedberg scored the first goal for Hammarby in the 41st minute, then Nahir Besara added another in the 46th minute In the end, Sirius was frustrated by Hammarby’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Hammarby ended the match with the shutout victory. With 20 points in their last 10 matches Hammarby should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, Malmö FF recorded a 1-0 shutout win against IFK Göteborg. Anders Christiansen struck first for Malmö FF in the 48th minute from the penalty spot, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, IFK Göteborg couldn’t muster any offence and Malmö FF ran away with the shutout win. Malmö FF is looking for direction having earned 16 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win each.
Malmö FF’s most prolific scorer has been Isaac Thelin. The Swedish attacker has netted three goals over the last 5 matches. Hammarby is glad to have Williot Swedberg in top form. In the last 5 matches the midfielder has scored four goals.
