Style clash between well organised teams
The two teams to play a match in Swedish Superettan 2025 on Sunday, Varbergs BoIS FC and GIF Sundsvall, are pursuing promotion and playoff ambitions respectively.
It’s a sign of how close the league is this year, but also an indication that neither of these clubs has been the most exciting in the division.
Varbergs boss Roar Hansen has been in charge since August 2024 and has made them a tough to break down team with his compact structures, lower to medium intensity pressing and pragmatic counter-attacks.
GIF Sundsvall is more of an Erol Ates side in that the coach, who took over in July 2024, has been able to instill a very organized and possession-based style of play that controls the midfield and pressures opponents into mistakes higher up the pitch.
