Sports Mole previews Sunday's Swedish Allsvenskan clash between Hammarby and Brommapojkarna, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Title-chasing Hammarby will look to bounce back from a disappointing defeat when they welcome Brommapojkarna to the 3Arena on Sunday evening as the second half of the 2025 Swedish Allsvenskan season commences.

The away side, meanwhile, head to the capital in search of a fourth straight victory to help continue their recent resurgence and exact revenge for a 2-0 defeat back in April's reverse meeting.



Match preview

Having won five matches on the bounce, Hammarby headed to Gamla Ullevi on Sunday for their clash against GAIS in flying form but would end up leaving empty-handed owing to a 3-2 defeat.

Kim Hellberg's men had kept clean sheets in each of their four league games prior, so conceding three times was almost unfathomable, although that turned out to be the case in a thrilling affair.

The Bajen's fruitless affair last time out has seen them fall four points adrift of leaders Mjallby at the summit, while the gap to third-place AIK currently stands at one point.

With the aforementioned Mjallby and AIK facing off this weekend, Hammarby will need to capitalise on any dropped points by claiming maximum points from their assignment.

Sunday's hosts have opened the scoring in five of their last six involvements, and another fast start this weekend could lay the foundation for a happy ending come the sound of the final whistle.

Brommapojkarna have been inconsistent throughout the campaign so far, although their current trajectory has raised hopes for a more productive second half of the season.

Ulf Kristiansson's men kicked off proceedings with back-to-back defeats at the hands of Hacken and this weekend's opponents Hammarby before going on to pick up 10 of the next 12 points available.

What followed for Brommapojkarna was a torrid run of six consecutive defeats between May 10 and June 1, after which wins against Degerfors, Norrkoping and most recently Oster by a combined score of 6-0 have ensued.

This upturn in form has propelled them to ninth in the standings. However, the Bromma-based outfit are closer to the relegation zone than they are to the final European spot, so any hopes of a continental push have long been squashed.

Sunday's game is the first of back-to-back outings against teams in the top five for the visitors before they take on three of the current bottom five, and the Bromma Boys must avoid another downward spiral to avoid the risk of being sucked into a relegation scrap.

We say: Hammarby 2-0 Brommapojkarna


 

Despite their horror show against GAIS, Hammarby still have the best defensive record in the league, and we are backing them to resume normal service at the back en route to a fairly comfortable win.
