On May 4, 2026, Halmstads BK will face Brommapojkarna in the sixth round of the Allsvenskan. The Halland club hopes to secure a positive result at home against the Stockholm team in this important fixture.

Halmstads BK, who finished eleventh last season with 35 points, have had a tough start to the new campaign. After the winter break, they began with defeats to AIK and Degerfors, and draws against Göteborg and Hammarby. They also stumbled against Mjällby. Lindholm's squad averages 0.6 goals scored per game and concedes 1.8 goals on average. They are yet to secure a win this season.

Brommapojkarna, who finished one position lower with four fewer points last autumn, have also had a mixed start. They began with draws against Häcken and AIK, then lost to Mjällby and Västerås, but managed to beat Örgryte in between. The visitors from the capital score an average of 1.4 goals per match but concede two goals on average.

Historically, Brommapojkarna hold an advantage with five wins and one draw against Halmstads BK. However, Halmstad managed to secure one point from two head-to-head encounters in 2025. Given the teams' current form and statistics, where both sides tend to concede goals, the "both teams to score" option appears to be a logical betting choice (odds 1.75).

Key statistics indicate that Halmstads BK has started the season without a win, and 60% of their matches end with both teams scoring, with an average of 2.4 total goals per match. Brommapojkarna, on the other hand, have lost twice in their last three games, and a significant 80% of their matches end with both teams scoring, with an average of 3.4 total goals per match.

Halmstads BK is expected to play in a 1-4-2-3-1 formation with Rennings; Friberg, Tjugyas, Gregor, Boman; Ascone, Allansson; Kaib, Carneil, Liimatta; Persson. Brommapojkarna will likely line up in a 1-4-4-2 formation with Kavallius; Zanden, Troelsen, Simpson, Timossi-Andersson; Okeke, Barslunn, Strand, Hansen; Bjorklund, Isso.
