There's value here as Schalke have won four of their last five by an average of 1.25 goals and seem to have improved after struggling against the drop last season. Hannover's home form so far is skewed a little as with the exception of Kaiserslautern, they've not played anyone in the top half of the table. So this might be a tight game with few opportunities. I'd be surprised if Hannover lost though.

15:00 Gillingham v Cheltenham

Gillingham

@1.57

-50

Cheltenham have the worst away defense and worst away goal difference in the fourth tier, which is usually a sure sign that a team is awful. Gillingham were surprisingly beaten by Harrogate in their last game at Priestfield, and I'm sure that won't happen again if Gareth Ainsworth has anything to do with it. Might be a few goals in this one, but I'm leaving that market alone.

Statistically speaking, this is a bit of a head-scratcher. If you remove Brommapojkarna's incredible 6-4 comeback home win over Norrköping in August, this game *might* produce fewer than 2.5 goals. But that's currently at a price higher than I'm comfortable with. I think the key factor here is that Hacken are clearly concentrating on the Conference League this season, but neither club is safe from either relegation or the playoffs. I would definitely think about laying a mine at nearer 1.40 as this looks as if it might go either way on this market.
13:00 AIK v IFK Varnamo

AIK

150 WIN

@1.44

-150

Will be playing this as a double with over 2.5 goals in the later game between Brommapojkarna and Hacken, but I do think it's worth pointing out that AIK's undefeated record at home combined with Varnamo's not winning away all season is a HUGE trap, especially with a win for the hosts at such a low price. On paper AIK should win easily, but football isn't played on paper :-)

14:00 Mjallby AIF v Elfsborg

Mjallby AIF

100 WIN

@1.70

Win

70

With an 11-point lead at the top of the Allsvenskan, a win today would more or less assure Mjallby wins the title. They've not lost any of their last ten home games and kept five clean sheets in that period. Elfsborg's form on the road is poor; they've lost four of the last five. Quite possibly a low-scoring game, but I can't see the hosts losing.

Fortuna Dusseldorf haven't scored at home since May, but that streak will have to end at some point and probably will against a Nurnberg side that has only kept two away clean sheets in their last ten road trips. This *may* be one of those games where a late goal wins both the game and the bet, so a mine at around 1.29 might be worth considering. The current average BL2 goals per game is 2.67, and my stats say 3.18 is possible here, but that's dependent on how inept Nurnberg's defense is.

I wouldn't normally go under 1.4 for anything, but I'm playing this as a second leg of an >2.5 goals double with the Nurnberg v Hertha Berlin game earlier.

Hacken's domestic form in the Allsvenskan has been derailed by their involvement in the UEFA Conference League. But despite that, they've still scored in nine of their last ten home games at the Bravida Arena. Norrkoping have only failed to score in two of their last ten away games in the league and recently scored six at Brommapojkarna. 1-1 would win this, but I'm pretty sure that won't be the final score.
14:00 Elfsborg v Degerfors

Surprised to see the price so high for this one. Seven of Elfsborg's last ten home games in the Allsvenskan have seen more than 2.5 goals. The last ten away trips for Degerfors have seen an average of 3.9 goals per game. The visitors have conceded the most away goals in the league this season.
