"Hosts AFC have got over the goals line in 5/7 home games this season"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.804/5 in AFC United v Djurgardens

Djurgardens are on their way to AFC United and Tobias Gourlay expects to see goals

AFC United v Djurgardens
Monday 18:00


Santos Laguna 1 Tigres 1 in Mexico overnight. Not especially good news for either of the teams involved, but we'll take it.

As Kev continues to bask in the glory of a profitable 2017, we're pulling one more shift today. In the 17th round of the season, AFC United are resolutely bottom of the Allsvenskan table. They've won on only one of their seven previous appearances at Tunavallen, but tonight's outing should at least deliver a few goals for the faithful.

Currently fourth in Sweden's 16-team top tier, Djurgardens are odds-on favourites to win this evening, despite only going W2-D2-L3 on the road so far. Home and away, Mark Dempsey's men have managed just one clean sheet in the last eight rounds. Each of the Iron Furnaces' last six have delivered Over 2.5 Goals in total.

Hosts AFC have got over the goals line in 5/7 home games this season, including all five games in which they've hit the back of the net themselves. We fancy them to help this one across the line too.
