Hammarby IF vs. IFK Varnamo Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Hammarby IF and IFK Varnamo, taking place on Saturday, 05 July 2025, at 3Arena in Stockholm.
Hammarby IF, Recent Form
Last time out, Hammarby IF went away feeling content with a 2-0 home win against Halmstads BK During that encounter they had 67% possession and had 31 attempts on goal with 13 on target, while their opponents hit 0 of their 5 shots on goal.
Manager Kim Hellberg 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're currenlty on a run of 3 consecutive clean sheets, and over the course of the season they've scored in 13 of their 14 games played so far.
They have had a strong run of form at 3Arena recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Nahir Besara will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 7 goals in Hammarby IF's 14 league games this season.
IFK Varnamo, Recent Form
Grabbing a valuable league point from their recent 0-0 draw against IF Elfsborg will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for IFK Varnamo. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 18 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against IF Elfsborg's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 4 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 8 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. So far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 12 of their 13 games.
The misery continues for Varnamo, having not won any of their last 14 games.
On an individual basis, Johnbosco Kalu will be looking to cause Hammarby IF some problems having scored 2 goals in IFK Varnamo's last 6 away games in the league.
Hammarby IF vs. IFK Varnamo Head to head
A defeat for IFK Varnamo in their last match against Hammarby IF was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
In the past 5 away matches at Hammarby in the league, Varnamo have consistently found the net, scoring at least 1 goal in each of those encounters. Goals come easy for Varnamo when they travel to Bajen, having recorded 6 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2 goals per match.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams at 3Arena, Varnamo has taken all 3 points and has not lost away to Hammarby in 5 games.
