GAIS vs Malmo Prediction
GAIS vs Malmo Prediction and Betting Tips for this Saturday’s Allsvenskan showdown at Gamla Ullevi. GAIS look to extend their strong home form, while Malmo aim to get back into the title race. In this preview, we break down the latest team news and share our top Allsvenskan Predictions from XpertStats analysts.
- GAIS are unbeaten in the Allsvenskan since early May with three wins in a row.
- Malmo sit eight points off the top but have only won twice away this season.
- Both sides average high corner counts, suggesting a lively match for set pieces.
GAIS come into this fixture riding a wave of momentum, unbeaten in their last six league outings and having secured three straight victories over Sirius, Norrkoping, and Hacken. Fredrik Holmberg’s side have collected a respectable eight points from five home matches and will be hoping that Ibrahim Diabate continues his prolific scoring form, with 11 goals in 16 appearances. A solid record against bigger sides and a tight defence at home make them a tricky opponent for Malmo.
Despite being newly promoted, GAIS are showing resilience and confidence, sitting sixth in the standings with 21 points from 13 matches. With key players like Amin Boudri also stepping up, the Green and Blacks look determined to keep climbing. Their high corner averages — over 9.5 corners in 80% of their matches — also point towards a dynamic, attack-minded approach that can trouble the visitors.
Malmo, the reigning Swedish champions, have struggled to hit top gear this season under Henrik Rydstrom. They currently occupy fifth spot with 23 points from 14 games, eight points behind leaders Mjallby. Although the Blue Ones boast quality across the pitch, they have been inconsistent away from home, winning just twice on the road in the league. With several key players out due to injuries and suspension, the visitors will need Isaac Kiese Thelin, their top scorer with eight goals, to deliver up front.
On a positive note for Malmo fans, the side has shown flashes of form, picking up four points from their last two fixtures, including a solid win over Hacken and a draw against Mjallby. Their own corner stats remain high, with an average of 11.43 corners per match and over 9.5 corners in 86% of games, further supporting the case for another open, end-to-end encounter. This shapes up as one of the standout fixtures in this weekend’s Allsvenskan Predictions lineup.
Backing Over 9.5 Corners in GAIS vs Malmo looks well supported by consistent data from both sides. GAIS average 12 corners per game, with an impressive 80% of their matches this season hitting over 9.5. Malmo’s corner stats are equally convincing, recording an average of 11.43 corners per match and surpassing the 9.5 mark in 86% of fixtures. GAIS play an attacking style at home under Fredrik Holmberg, often pushing wide and creating set-piece opportunities. Meanwhile, Malmo’s struggles on the road have forced them to be more direct, leading to higher corner counts. With both teams still eyeing the top half, expect aggressive football from the first whistle. Key attackers like Ibrahim Diabate for GAIS and Isaac Kiese Thelin for Malmo mean both defences will be busy clearing their lines. Combining the stats and the stakes, Over 9.5 Corners is a smart value play for this Allsvenskan encounter.
