The “Wasps” had a disappointing last season. For a team accustomed to consistently winning one title after another this century, a second-place finish can only be seen as a failure. Appointing Yuriy Guru in late spring, the expectation was for him to confidently lead the team back to the top.
However, international success is also expected. Instead, there was almost a failure at the start. They lost at home to Zira, conceding a late goal. In Azerbaijan, they conceded early but managed to rally, securing a 2-1 comeback victory and winning the penalty shootout.
The “Elegants” finished as the runners-up in Sweden last season, one of their best results in recent times. They have struggled to replicate that form this season, though their performance improved in the summer, allowing them to break into the top 5 by balancing the number of wins and losses.
Elfsborg had a strong start in the Europa League. They thrashed debutant Pafos 3-0 at home. The match in Cyprus was even more spectacular. The hosts led 2-1 at halftime, but in the second half, they conceded four goals.
