Both clubs enter the match on contrasting recent runs – Mjällby have managed just one point from their last five league outings, while Sirius have collected twelve points from five straight victories. The disparity in form and the clear away‑goal threat set the stage for a decisive encounter in Allsvenskan.

Lars's Verdict

Strong
Sirius to win Lost Strong lean Strong · Clear attacking edge

The model rates a Sirius victory at 73.7%, driven by their superior expected goals and recent five‑game winning streak.

Show the maths
Sirius’s away expected‑goals of 2.6 dwarfs Mjällby’s home expected‑goals of 0.9, creating a 1.7‑goal differential in favor of the visitors. This gap translates into a model win probability of 73.7% for Sirius versus 10.7% for Mjällby, with the draw capped at 15.5%. The high over‑2.5 goal probability (67.8%) further underscores the likelihood of multiple goals, reinforcing the expectation that Sirius will outscore the hosts.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 54.8% model probability

With Mjallby AIF averaging 0.9 expected goals and Sirius averaging 2.6, the model gives a 54.8% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.2% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Mjallby AIF 0.9, Sirius 2.6) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.8% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.2% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Won 67.8% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.5 (Mjallby AIF 0.9 + Sirius 2.6) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 67.8% chance against 32.2% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Mjallby AIF 0.9 + Sirius 2.6 = 3.5 combined): 67.8% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 32.2% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Mjallby AIF at 10.7%, the draw at 15.5%, and Sirius at 73.7% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 0-2 at 10.2% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5

Mjallby AIF

DLDLL

Mjällby’s recent five‑match stretch reads D‑L‑D‑L‑L, delivering just one point. They drew 4‑4 with Sirius away, then fell 1‑2 to AIK at home, followed by a goalless draw 0‑0 with Västerås at home, before losing 1‑2 at Kalmar away and 0‑1 to IF Elfsborg at home. This sequence shows a leaky defence and limited scoring, meaning they are unlikely to overturn the model’s win odds for Sirius.

Sirius

DWWWW

Sirius have compiled D‑W‑W‑W‑W, amassing twelve points from five games. After a 4‑4 home draw with Mjällby, they secured a 2‑1 away win over IF Brommapojkarna, followed by a 3‑1 away victory at IF Elfsborg, a 4‑1 home triumph over IFK Göteborg, and a 2‑0 away win at Halmstad. Their consistent scoring and clean sheets illustrate why the model heavily favors a win for Sirius.

Head-to-Head

In the last five meetings, Mjällby have scored 12 goals to Sirius’s 9, including a 2‑1 win for Mjällby in July 2025 and a 3‑2 victory in July 2024. Despite the historical edge for the hosts, the recent form swing and higher away expected‑goals tilt the current matchup toward a Sirius win.
