I believe visiting Växjö will beat home team Djurgarden to a decision.
Djurgarden is the last team in the league, having scored only 18 points in 25 games with a score of 57:91. They have the worst defence in league, conceding an average of 3.64 goals per game, and the worst attack with an average of 2.28 goals per game. Out of the last 8 games, they have won only once against their below average neighbour Malmo. 7 times they have lost by more than 2 goals, 4 of them to teams in the second half of the table. They are already 8 points behind the nearest team and are slowly but surely heading towards relegation. At home they have only 8 points out of 36 possible.
Växjö is fighting for a straight top 6 finish. They are currently in 8th place with 40 points from 25 games with a score of 73:71 and only 2 points behind 6th place. That will be the main motivation in this game, to jump up the ranks guaranteeing direct qualification to the playoffs. Växjö hasn't done well in the last month, but they have scored points in the last 4 games and have already won the last two games. Today, they will want to confirm their rising form and win on the ice of last-place Djurgarden.
Växjö as the defending champion certainly has bigger ambitions than the current position guaranteeing the playoffs. Today they should take on a hopeless Djurgarden and win at least to a decision and jump up the table slightly.
My prediction: Växjö (to decision) @ 1.65 (bet365)
