Häcken recently secured their second consecutive Swedish league title following a 4-1 victory over Kristianstad. Elena Sadiku’s side then drew 1-1 against Djurgården on Friday, extending their unbeaten run in the Damallsvenskan to 18 matches.
The hosts have been particularly impressive on home soil, winning 11 of their 12 league fixtures in Gothenburg this season (D1). Häcken have also scored 80 goals in 25 domestic matches, highlighting an attacking threat which Chelsea cannot afford to underestimate.
However, European performances have been far less convincing, with Häcken collecting just one point from their opening three league-phase fixtures. They’ve also scored only once, with a stoppage-time equaliser rescuing a draw against Paris FC last time out. The hosts can be backed at 11/1 with William Hill to cause an upset.

Chelsea head to Sweden following Saturday’s frustrating 1-1 draw with Everton, bringing an end to their five-match winning run. However, Sonia Bompastor’s side remain unbeaten in all competitions this season, sitting second in the WSL with 23 points from nine fixtures.
The Blues have made a strong start to their Champions League campaign, collecting seven points from their opening three matches (W2, D1). Chelsea are yet to concede in the league phase, recording victories over Austria Wien and Roma alongside a goalless draw away at Lyon.
Away performances have been particularly impressive, with Chelsea winning all four WSL trips this season, scoring 17 goals and conceding just once. The visitors also secured a 3-1 victory on their previous visit to Häcken in December 2023, with William Hill offering 1/7 for another success in Sweden.
