Elfsborg won the first game with a single goal scored by Avdic on18 minutes. After the goal the Latvian side tried to strike back with plenty of forward movement but could not break the defense that has only conceded one goal in five Intertoto Cup matches this campaign. Elfsborg took the initiative thereafter and had a few good opportunities to win by a bigger margin. They will look to score an away goal and damage the Latvians’ chances of progressing.
Latvians proved a worthy opponent
FK Riga played bravely in Sweden and after they conceded they tried to hit back but were stopped by the excellent defense of the hosts in the first half. In the second half visitors managed to break the hosts’ defense but even then they find Elfsborg keeper Johan Wiland willing to charge from his goal to stop the opposition forwards to get any chance of scoring. In this game, home players will have to attack but at the same time be aware of the Swedes looking to punish them through counter attacks.
Swedes chasing Uefa Cup
Elfsborg recorded a narrow win over the Latvians, and will surely regret for the chances they had. The hosts started well and after Avdic scored on 18 minutes one could think they will score some more goals. And the Swedes created their chances but could not realize them. This means Elfsborg will have tough task to hold on to their lead in Latvia. FK Riga players will have to go forward and that will create space for Swedish team to exploit. Swedes put all their hopes in excellent midfielder Anders Svensson and believe he can lead the team to success. Another big motive for them will be the fact that if they progress from this round they will be seeded in the Uefa Cup draw.
Betting verdict
FK Riga played bravely in the Sweden and after they conceded, they started to attack their hosts. Latvians will do the same thing at home, but in this match will go forward from the start. This will create a lot of space for the experienced Elfsborg players, who should the opportunity arise will know how to punish Riga. This will be an open game and because of that I recommend betting on over 2.5 goals.
