Himmel and Himmel only über Malmö

I know, there's a big game on tonight. Trying to keep focus elsewhere to live through the day. Like the Swedish league, which is about to start and where I have not been very good at updating you.  It is actually already time to submit predictions.  Here are mine:

1. Malmö FF. The best squad. Got a taste of Europe last year and are now dying to get back there.
2. Helsingborgs IF. Defending champions never win in Sweden.  But Helsingborg is a big challenger. Important that Walid Atta does well in central defense.  If Mahlangu continues like last year he will be gone by summer but Helsingborg have been good at replacing sold players.
3. Elfsborgs IF. We all look forward to what Viktor Claesson can do.  Big question mark for the defense.
4. Kalmar FF. Bouncing back after a few off years with a strong squad.
5. IFK Göteborg. Don't believe the hype.  Too many new players to have the consistency needed to fight for the title.
6. AIK. Rarely do two good seasons in a row.
7. Örebro SK. A long way up from the deep hole they fell into last season.  A brand new midfield that needs to work, a slow central defense could make the whole idea of how Örebro should play vulnerable.
8. Gais. Celik or no Celik? Irrespective of that, Gais could surprise any team.
9. BK Häcken. Solid. Boring.
10. Gefle IF. Perhaps a bit overrated after years of the opposite? But a strong offensive line-up.
11. IFK Norrköping. Will be more stable this year.
12. Åtvidabergs FF. Think ÅFF could be off to a good start but can't see them last.
13. Djurgårdens IF. Many new players, not so sure if they are that good.
14. Mjällby AIF. A downward trend. A new central midfield.
15. GIF Sundsvall. Will have a tough time although that guy Skulason looks pretty good.
16. Syrianska SK. Too many good players lost. Hard to see them survive this.

Whatcho think?
