Kalmar FF vs Hammarby FF: Under 2.5 goals
Kalmar's 1.8 expected goals at home meet Hammarby's 1.0 away expectancy, but the model still leans toward a low‑scoring affair.
Both sides have shown contrasting recent form: Kalmar have struggled to convert chances, while Hammarby have been prolific but defensively porous on the road.
Lars's Verdict
The model assigns a 47% chance to under 2.5 goals, lower than the over threshold, aligning with the tight defensive numbers of both teams.
Show the maths
With Kalmar FF averaging 1.8 expected goals and Hammarby FF averaging 1.0, the model gives a 52.8% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 47.2% it gives to at least one side being kept out.
Show the maths
Combined expected goals of 2.8 (Kalmar FF 1.8 + Hammarby FF 1.0) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 53.0% chance against 47.0% for Under.
Show the maths
Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Kalmar FF at 56.1%, the draw at 23.1%, and Hammarby FF at 20.8% to win.
The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-0 at 10.9% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Model probabilities are derived from each team's real season goals-for and goals-against averages via a Poisson goal-expectancy model — not a fixed set of narrative numbers.
Form Guide — Last 5
Kalmar FF
Kalmar’s recent five‑match run (L 0‑2 at Hammarby, D 2‑2 vs Malmö, W 2‑1 vs Mjällby, D 1‑1 vs BK Häcken, L 2‑3 vs IFK Göteborg) shows three matches with two or more goals conceded, including a 2‑3 loss away. The pattern of conceding multiple goals in 60% of those games supports a low‑scoring total for this fixture.
Hammarby FF
Hammarby’s last five league outings (W 2‑1 at Elfsborg, W 2‑0 vs Kalmar, W 4‑0 vs Degerfors, D 1‑1 at Brommapojkarna, W 3‑0 vs BK Häcken) feature four wins, but three of those involved conceding none. Their defensive record away (1.4 GA per game) combined with a recent clean sheet suggests they can keep the scoreline tight despite scoring.
Head-to-Head
In the last five meetings, Hammarby have won four, including a 2‑0 win this season, while Kalmar’s only positive result was a 0‑0 draw in 2023, underscoring Hammarby's offensive edge but also a tendency for modest scorelines.
