AIK to beat Orebro @ 2.1

Its hard to know how teams will play after the break, teams that were out of form will play well and teams that were in form will suddenly start losing matches, but I cant see that happening today and the form team out of the two AIK will claim victory. AIK have a lot of good players in their squad and its a very international squad they have which is an advantage to have as they are not bad players. AIK have won their last three away matches two of them in the league against strugglers Gefle and IFK Norrkopping. Orebro are struggling like those two sides and are very much like them based on quality and form. They have not won in four home matches, losing three of those matches and scoring just 1 goal in those home matches without a win. AIKs last two visits to Orebro have been 5-0 and 4-1 victories in their favour and they can claim a win in the Behrn Arena today.

GAIS +0.75 v Helsinborg @ 2

This will be a very competitive match and I fancy GAIS to hold Helsingborg or even claim their first away success of 2008. GAIS were very unlucky in their last away match at leaders Malmo, they were ahead on the 48th minute thanks to Levon Pachajyan but an own goal by Andreas Tobiasson handed the home side a point. They will be desperate to build on that and they are unbeaten in their last three away matches although all have been draws. Helsingorg are very dangerous and they are yet to lose at home in the Allsvenskan this year but they do concede goals and if they concede one against this team they will struggle to get past them as they are a very tight unit. First goal will be vital in this one regarding this bet.

I can appreciate your reasoning to back GAIS on the asian, but i'm swaying more towards Helsingborgs. Being one of the big names in the Allsvenskan, they have slightly underachieved so far this season. Although they haven't lost in their 5 home games, 3 of them were draws. However those 3 draws were their first 3 home games, since then two home wins against Obebro and an impressive 4-2 over Malmo. As GAIS haven't claimed an away win yet I would rather side with Helsingborgs. However the highest odds I can find on a home win are 1.65 at 365 and I don't think the odds are really good enough to have a dabble

I'm going to give this a shot

KR Reykjavik vs. Fram Reykjavik
KR @ 1/2 DNB Bet 365

KR have won their last 3 home games by more than a goal which included a 2-0 win over Fram at the end of May. Fram have lost 2 and won 1 out of their last 3 away. In their last 6 games KR has a GD of 6 while Fram has a GD od -1.
And now for the good bit, in the 12 previous home fixtures for KR against Fram they have won 10, drawn 1 and lost 1. They have never failed to score, only scored less than 2 on 3 occasions and lost the other game by only 1. In fairness 5 of those games were pre 2000 but KR has won the last 6 in a row since 2001. I think they will win at Evens Bet265 but as it's a cup game and I tend to be cautious with bets anyway then I'll stick with the 1/2 option.

RESULT - KR 2-0 -

Any ideas why Olomotyussi was out, was it injury or suspension?
