Swedes have more swagger
The Swedes have more of a swagger about them at the moment and should justify their slight favorite status when they take on Norrby IF on Sunday. Tobias Linderoth has kept the hosts compact and hard to break down since he took over as manager on 1 January 2025 and they've got plenty of bite and bite for second balls.
Tactical structure:
But the structure is still there and that makes this more of a chess match in which whichever side can win the wide duels and get it right in transition looks more likely to win. Östersunds FK have a bit more of a bite in that respect with Nemanja Miljanovic's 2026 introduction of a wing-back shape having given them width and pace in the wide areas.
Form and table:
This looks as close to a toss-up as you can get, with the odds on the result markets indicating Östersunds FK as the slight favorite. Östersunds are fifth in the table with 25 points from 15 games and Norrby are 13th with 14 points from 14 after a mixed bag of recent results.
Östersunds have a sharper edge
Their two most recent results, a 0-0 home draw with Nordic United FC and a 0-1 away win over IFK Norrköping, have a slightly better feel to them than their previous three. But Östersunds have won two on the bounce now after a wobble and that should see them travel to Boras in decent shape.
But the slight edge has to go with the visitors as they have won one and drawn one of the last two meetings, while Simon Marklund looks a more dangerous player than Jamie Bichis.
- Their only defeat in their last 5 was 0-2 at home to IFK Norrköping, but they have beaten GIF Sundsvall 0-2 and Landskrona BoIS 2-0 since then.
- Norrby have won 0, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their two most recent home matches and really need a bit more of a final-third spark if they are to get a result here.
- An Östersunds FK or draw wager looks a smart play to us as the 3.35 about the game finishing as it did in the corresponding fixture of 2026, 1-1, cannot be ignored.
