Football Bet of the Day: Rare win for Ljungskile on the cards

Ljungskile v AFC Utd
Wednesday 18:00

In Sweden yesterday, Halmstads beat Osters 2-0 to bring down our BTTS bet. We're sticking in Scandinavia today and if the scoreline's the same in this one, we'll be on the right side of it.

In the depths of the Superettan table, rock-bottom Ljungskile have won just one of their first 11 league games of the campaign. We fancy they can notch their second win at home to second-bottom AFC Utd this evening.

The hosts are W1-D2-L2 on home turf this term, but the important thing for us is they've scored seven times across those five matches. Only second-placed Halmstads have been able to shut them out. Against the teams now ninth, tenth and eleventh in the table, they scored twice each time.

Visiting AFC Utd have the Superettan's worst away record, picking up just a single point from their first five matches. They've scored only twice across those five games, while conceded 14. We don't think they've got the strength in defence nor the firepower in attack to deny Ljungskile all three points.
