Helsingborg v Umea FC Tips

Both Swedish sides are in the relegation zone. However, with Helsingborg being fourth from the bottom and having won three games compared to bottom side Umea with none, they can claim all three points. This may see them winning this game 3-1 and moving out of the relegation zone.

Umea FC are yet to win a league match this season but drew two of their last three league matches. Helsingborg drew each of their last three league matches.

Umeå FC approach this match with determination and tactical discipline, capable of exploiting Helsingborg’s inconsistent defense. Their pace on the break and sharp set-piece routines make them a real threat. With less pressure and more to prove, Umeå can surprise. Back them with a draw cover or narrow win??'this fixture holds genuine upset potential.

In this match of the Sweden League, the two teams come at a lousy level. While among the teams that can descend this season, it can be expected that this is not a game with great goal possibilities for either of these two teams. This is why I do not think it exceeds two scored goals.

For the prediction: Helsingborg has won only 3 times out of 13 matches, with 13 points (13th out of 16). Umeå has only 3 points and is last. I think the BTTS can come out: Umeå has seen 4 BTTS out of 5 matches, Helsingborg 3/5.

Helsingborg could be going along nicely with a couple of goals advantage, only to switch off to allow Umea back in the game. But once back into focus, Helsingborg go on and take the game 3-1.
