Countless picks at BookieCo for the matchups and the big favorites in Scandinavia
There are plenty of games on Sunday's schedule, with the Scandinavians... stealing the show on another hot summer day in Europe.
Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Iceland are the five leagues in full swing. The essential difference is that Denmark has only recently started, while the others are in the second round and even some teams have stood out in the title race.
In Norway, Bran took... a day off, but the big game of the week is Viking-Molde. Both teams have 28 points each and are in 3rd place and therefore the winner will gain an advantage in the standings and stay in the hunt for the leader Bodo Glimt.
A similar game will be played in Sweden, with Jurgården hosting Elsfsborg. The hosts are in second place with 31 points, six more than their opponents, with both teams needing a win to remain in contention.
The match between Hammarby and Mialby is also of great interest. The two teams are between the pair in the first leg, with the hosts sitting in 5th place with 25 points and the visitors in 3rd with 29.
As for the champions Hacken will host the last of the league, Vestros.

THE MATCHES AND THEIR PERFORMANCES IN DENMARK
