Halmstads BK vs. GAIS Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Halmstads BK and GAIS, taking place on Saturday, 01 June 2024, at Örjans Vall in Halmstad.
Halmstads BK, Recent Form
The 2-0 away defeat to IF Elfsborg will not have sat easily with the Halmstads BK squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. During that encounter they had 39% possession and had 7 attempts on goal with 1 on target, while their opponents hit 7 of their 18 shots on goal.
Having lost 13 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Magnus Haglund will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 9 goals they scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Losing 4 of their last 6 outings will not be looked on kindly by their manager; however, they did salvage some valuable points by winning the other 2 games.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Halmstads BK, Naeem Mohammed will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
GAIS, Recent Form
The last league instalment for GAIS produced a stunning 3-0 home win over BK Hacken. They came away from that fixture with a 41% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to BK Hacken, who managed 17 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Fredrik Holmberg will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
Axel Henriksson will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for GAIS.
