Right, so we've got BK Hacken at home against Orgryte IS, and let me tell you, the numbers here are telling a pretty clear story. BK Hacken have won their last two games – a 1–0 away at IF Elfsborg and a 5–0 away at Kalmar FF – and in those two they scored six and conceded nothing. That's the kind of form that makes you sit back with your beer and a smile on your face. You don't need a braai for that one, the numbers do the cooking for you.
Now look at Orgryte IS. They've lost their last two, scoring just two and conceding six. Their last five games? Zero wins. Two draws and three losses. And on the road, over their last 20 away games, they've won just 2, drawn 6 and lost 12. That's 0.6 points per game on the road, folks. In South Africa we'd say that's not even enough to fill a braai pot, let alone feed a family.
BK Hacken at home over 20 games have won 10, drawn 6 and lost 4, averaging 1.9 goals per game and conceding 1.6. Orgryte IS away over 20 games have scored 0.75 per game and conceded 2.25. The gap in those numbers is massive. BK Hacken have kept clean sheets in 5 of their 20 home games, while Orgryte IS have managed just 3 in 20 away. And here's another one that hits hard: Orgryte IS have failed to score in 10 of their 20 away games. BK Hacken have failed to score in just 1 of 20 at home. That's a world of difference.
The head-to-head adds a little spice. In July, Orgryte IS beat BK Hacken 4–3 at their own ground. But at BK Hacken's ground, the only recent meeting was a 2–0 win for the hosts back in February. So the venue matters here, and BK Hacken have the edge when they're at home.
Now, the counter-argument. BK Hacken's home form isn't perfect. They drew 1–1 with Mjallby AIF in September and lost 1–3 to Vasteras SK FK in August – a game where they had a red card in the 42nd minute. So they're not untouchable at home. And Orgryte IS did score in 4 of their last 5 games, so they're not completely toothless. That 4–3 result in July showed they can compete and put goals on the board. You can't write them off entirely.
But the overall picture is hard to ignore. BK Hacken are in a run, their home numbers are solid, and Orgryte IS are struggling on the road. The evidence points strongly to BK Hacken taking this one.
