A derby between two Swedish clubs separated by just 20 kilometers rarely needs extra hype, and this Superettan clash at Olympia on June 11 delivers the genuine tension of a local rivalry with table implications attached. Helsingborg sit 8th with 14 points from 10 games, while Landskrona occupy 9th on 13 points, also from 10 outings. Three points here could shift the upper half picture for either side.
Neither team has been consistent enough to inspire real confidence. Helsingborg have won just once in their last four matches, with two defeats in that run. Landskrona are marginally steadier in recent weeks but have managed only one win from four as well. The last time these two met in the 2025 Superettan season, they drew 0-0 at this same ground, which gives you a sense of how tightly contested these fixtures tend to be.
On the Helsingborg side, their attacking output in recent weeks has been patchy at best. Under Stevie Grieve’s 4-4-2 setup, the team has looked capable of scoring but equally capable of switching off defensively. For Landskrona, Robin Asterhed’s 4-3-3 gives them a bit more width and pressing intensity, and their ability to control tempo could be decisive in a tight fixture.
Hot stat: Helsingborg have conceded 20 goals in just 10 league games this season, making them one of the leakier defenses in the division despite playing home more than half those fixtures.

Helsingborg vs Landskrona Prediction
We think the draw is the most realistic outcome here. Four of the last five head-to-head meetings between these clubs ended level, and both sides are sitting in very similar form. Helsingborg’s home record is not dominant enough to justify backing them at odds around 2.40, and Landskrona have shown enough defensive solidity (13 goals conceded in 10 games) to avoid being beaten easily on the road.
The 3-3 they shared in the 2025 Superettan season is a bit of an outlier for this fixture. The 0-0 and 0-1 results are more in line with what this rivalry typically produces. Helsingborg’s attack generated only 6 total shots in their last recorded match, while Landskrona managed 10. That shot volume advantage for the visitors, combined with 4 corner kicks versus Helsingborg’s 2, suggests Landskrona can create enough to at least cancel out whatever Helsingborg produce.
Helsingborg picked up 5 yellow cards in their last match data compared to Landskrona’s 2, which tells you something about how the home side approaches matches physically. That aggression can work against them when referees are active, and in a local derby the intensity will already be elevated. Landskrona’s cleaner discipline profile gives them a slight structural edge in staying organized through 90 minutes.
- Match prediction: Draw (X) – Both teams are too evenly matched in form and head-to-head history for a decisive winner to emerge.
- Under 2.5 Goals – Three of the last four H2H meetings produced two goals or fewer. Defensive caution usually wins out in this derby.
- Landskrona to score – Their 4-3-3 pressing style and better recent shot volume make it likely they find the net at least once.

Team Analysis
Helsingborg have had a difficult few weeks. Their most recent match ended in a 0-2 defeat to Norrkoping, a team sitting 3rd in the table with a strong defensive record. Before that, they beat Orebro 2-1, which looked like a turning point, but the loss to Norrkoping confirmed that Helsingborg still struggle against quality opposition. Their 1-3 defeat to league leaders Varbergs earlier in the month was another reminder that the defensive structure under Grieve needs work. The 2-2 draw with Oddevold and the 3-3 against Norrby, while producing goals, also exposed a team that cannot hold leads. Helsingborg have now shipped 20 goals in 10 league matches, the joint-worst defensive record among the top half of the table.
Landskrona’s recent form is more mixed but arguably more controlled. Their last match was a 2-2 draw with Brage, a reasonable result against a side sitting just below them in the table. Before that, they beat Sandvikens 1-0, which showed they can grind out wins when needed. The 1-2 defeat to Sundsvall, who sit bottom of the table, is a concern and honestly one of the stranger results in their recent run. Their draws against Norrby and Oddevold suggest a team that is hard to beat but sometimes lacks the punch to close games out. Asterhed’s 4-3-3 gives Landskrona a pressing identity, and their discipline record is notably cleaner than Helsingborg’s.

Pre-game Odds and Win Probability: An Open Match With No Clear Favourite
- Moneyline Helsingborg 2.43 | Landskrona 2.62
- Draw 3.40
The bookmakers have this almost perfectly split, with Helsingborg carrying a slight edge at home. The average market expectation puts Helsingborg at 38% and Landskrona at 36%, which is about as close as it gets. The draw at around 3.40 with Pinnacle looks like reasonable value given the head-to-head history and the current form of both sides. Honestly, backing the draw at those odds makes more sense than siding with either team at sub-2.50 prices when neither has shown the consistency to deserve favouritism.
Possible Starting Lineups
Helsingborg Possible Starting Eleven

- GK: Oscar Jansson
- DF: Marcus Danielsson, Joakim Nilsson, Hjalmar Ekdal, Viktor Lundberg
- MF: Hampus Finndell, Pontus Dahbo, Elias Andersson, Anton Lans
- FW: Simon Ydegaard, Søren Reese
Grieve has consistently deployed a 4-4-2 in recent matches, and there is no reason to expect a change in a derby. The midfield four is key to how Helsingborg function, with wide players expected to track back and support the defensive line. Simon Ydegaard is the player to watch in attack. He has the movement to unsettle Landskrona’s back line if service is consistent. Defensively, Joakim Nilsson’s aerial presence will matter given Landskrona’s tendency to work crosses from wide areas in their 4-3-3.
Landskrona Possible Starting Eleven

- GK: Tobias Carlsson
- DF: Filip Dagerstål, Niklas Gunnarsson, Eric Björkander, Christoffer Lindqvist
- MF: Linus Hallenius, Adnan Kojic, Samuel Gustafsson
- FW: Marcus Ingvartsen, Amadou Jawo, Axel Björnström
Asterhed’s preferred 4-3-3 gives Landskrona a compact midfield base with three attacking outlets. Marcus Ingvartsen is the most dangerous player in this squad when he is on form, capable of pressing and finishing with equal effectiveness. The single pivot role in midfield is where Landskrona can be exposed if Helsingborg’s midfield four is aggressive early, so Adnan Kojic’s positioning will be worth watching. Landskrona’s full backs tend to push high in this system, which creates space behind them that Helsingborg could target on the counter.

The Verdict
This is a derby that tends to produce tight, tense football rather than open exchanges. Four of the last five head-to-head meetings ended level, and both teams are sitting in almost identical league positions with almost identical recent form. Helsingborg’s defensive numbers are poor for a home side, but Landskrona have not exactly been free-scoring either, managing just 13 goals in 10 games.
We think this ends 1-1. Both teams score, neither pulls clear, and the points are shared. The draw at around 3.40 is the value bet. If you want a secondary angle, BTTS Yes fits the profile of a match where both sides need something from the game and will push forward enough to find at least one goal each.
