Djurgarden vs Elfsborg Prediction
Djurgarden vs Elfsborg Prediction and Betting Tips for Saturday’s Allsvenskan fixture at the Tele2 Arena. Djurgarden are looking to bounce back after a 1-0 loss to bottom-placed Varnamo, while Elfsborg aim to build on last week’s 2-1 victory over IFK Goteborg. In this article, you’ll find informed insights and Allsvenskan Predictions backed by data from the XpertStats team.
- Djurgarden have just one win in their last five Allsvenskan matches

- Djurgarden average 11.63 corners per match, Elfsborg 10.85
- Both teams rank in the top five for corner averages in the league
Djurgarden’s 2025 campaign has been well below expectations. With only five wins in 15 matches, the twelve-time Swedish champions sit in 10th place, far off the European places they occupied last season. A humiliating loss to Varnamo last time out underscored the club’s inconsistent form under Jani Honkavaara. Despite this, they remain a threat at home, recently thrashing Degerfors 5-1 at the Tele2 Arena. Tokmac Nguen and August Priske—both with nine goals this season—will be pivotal if the hosts are to rediscover their rhythm.
Djurgarden continue to be among the league leaders in corner statistics, averaging an impressive 11.63 corners per match. They’ve seen Over 9.5 Corners land in 75% of their games, a figure that reflects their aggressive wide play and set-piece emphasis. While their attack has been inconsistent, their corner metrics suggest sustained pressure in the final third, especially at home.
Elfsborg enter this fixture on a more positive trajectory, sitting fourth with 29 points and only one defeat in their last four matches. Oscar Hiljemark’s side returned to winning ways with a solid 2-1 result against IFK Goteborg, and they remain firmly in the race for European qualification. Key players like Frederik Ihler (7 goals) and the versatile Simon Hedlund (6 goals, 7 assists) continue to be standout performers. With no major injury concerns, Elfsborg are expected to name an unchanged lineup.
The visitors also contribute heavily to corner totals, averaging 10.85 corners per match, with Over 9.5 Corners landing in 56% of their fixtures. Their attacking style, especially on the counter, generates frequent set-piece opportunities. Given both teams’ corner profiles and the competitive nature of their recent head-to-head clashes, expect a high-tempo encounter with plenty of activity in both boxes. This sets up a compelling angle for Allsvenskan Predictions in the corners market.
The Over 9.5 Corners market offers excellent value in this Djurgarden vs Elfsborg clash. Djurgarden’s home games are consistently corner-heavy, driven by their attacking width and direct play. They rank among the league leaders with an 11.63 average corners per match and a 75% hit rate on Over 9.5. Elfsborg also contribute with 10.85 corners per game, largely thanks to their counter-attacking style that forces defenses to concede set-pieces. With Tokmac Nguen and August Priske expected to start for Djurgarden, and Elfsborg’s Frederik Ihler and Simon Hedlund in top form, both teams will look to exploit the flanks. Given the recent goal output between these sides and the need for points on both ends, we can anticipate frequent end-to-end action, generating more corners. The stats back it, and the styles confirm it: Over 9.5 Corners is a strong play here.
