After making it five consecutive winners on Tuesday thanks to Bournemouth’s late consolation at The Etihad, Wednesday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to the Swedish second tier, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.

⚽️ Utsiksens BK vs Orebro SK

???????? Superettan

⏰ Wednesday 21 May, 18:00

Utsiktens will look to extend their unbeaten run to six matches in the Swedish Superettan tomorrow evening as they welcome struggling Örebro to the Bravida Arena in a fixture that I’m keen to back the hosts to strike at least twice.

Utsiktens endured a tough start to their league campaign, as they lost each of their opening three Superettan fixtures, conceding six times and scoring just twice in the process.

However, since then, Bosko Orovic’s hosts are now in the midst of a five-game unbeaten run (W2-D3-L0), with their 1-3 victory away at bottom side Umea last time out moving them one point clear of the relegation playoff spots.

Orebro’s nightmare start to the campaign continued last time out, as despite taking the lead for the second game in a row, they conceded in stoppage time to lose 2-1.

That now means Patrik Haginge’s visitors have picked up a solitary point across their opening eight Superettan fixtures this season (W0-D1-L7) – with that coming in a goalless draw at home to fellow strugglers Trelleborg – leaving them already eight points adrift of automatic safety at this early point of the season.

Bet of the Day

Utsiktens are the joint third-highest scorers in the Swedish second tier this term, firing in 15 goals across their opening eight matches, with eight (53%) of them coming on home soil.

Kiken have found the back of the net in all bar one of their league matches this season – notching on multiple occasions in each of their last five – and I’m backing them to bag a double for the fourth consecutive home match against an Orebro backline that has shipped 2+ goals in 7/8 (88%) of their league outings this season, including in 4/4 (100%) away from home.
