Swedish Superettan
Osters vs Norrkoping 3.00 - 3.40 - 2.10
Before the season started both teams were expected to fight for promotion but Osters have not started well at all having won just once in their 5 first games. I don't think however that the odds dropping for the awaywin are due to the bad start. They are due to the problems that Osters teams has got for this one.
Midfielder Zavadil is in Chech Rep. for personal reasons and midfielder Figuieiredo is injuerd. These players are very important for the creating part of Oster's game and without both of them they are in trouble. Forward Johnson is also out because of injury as far as I know, although some previews state him in the starting 11. Also first team goalkeeper Malmkvist is doubtful but should play. Defender Borg is also doubtful and may miss this one. All these are first team players and the two midfielders really important ones.
Norrkoping have started much much better, 3 wins and 2 draws in their opening 5 games. They miss important midfielder Samuelson who does not want to aggravate his injury.
Odds on the awaywin are dropping fast. I am not so sure however that Norrkoping can leave with all 3 points despite Osters' problems. I would
expekt a nervous game without too many chances. I am not betting on anything as I am on a slightly bad run, however if I had to choose I would go with under 2.5 @ 1.90.
