Trelleborg secured a 93-67 victory over Sollentuna in the Superettan on 10 October 2026, wrapping up their campaign with a decisive home win. The hosts had finished the league in tenth place after 26 games, recording 12 wins and 14 defeats with no draws to their name. Sollentuna arrived off the back of mixed results, including a comfortable 85-67 win over Cross Over and a narrow 98-103 loss to Wetterbikden Stars just days earlier.
By then, Trelleborg had been navigating a difficult season, but this performance suggested they could still compete when it mattered. And here's the thing — the margin of victory told you everything about where both sides stood at the business end of the year. The hosts controlled the tempo from the opening tip, while Sollentuna struggled to find any rhythm in attack.
We had tipped Trelleborg to win this one with 54 per cent confidence, and the result confirmed that call. To be fair, the scoreline was perhaps slightly kinder than the game warranted, as Sollentuna never really threatened to mount a serious comeback. But Trelleborg made no mistakes when it counted, and the lead only ever grew wider.
The standings reflected a season of inconsistency for the hosts, who had dropped points in crucial moments throughout the campaign. Their recent form had been uneven — a 106-91 win over AIK Basket followed by a 71-92 defeat in the same week showed the volatility of their play. Yet against a side like Sollentuna, they at least showed they could close out a match.
Sollentuna's run of results suggested a team still searching for stability, with losses to both Wetterbikden Stars and AIK Basket highlighting defensive frailties. They had shown glimpses of quality with that 90-60 victory over Cross Over, but consistency remained elusive. The gap on the board felt representative of the quality difference on the night.
The result meant Trelleborg finished their Superettan campaign with a positive note, even if their overall record spoke of a season that could have gone better. For Sollentuna, it was another defeat to add to a growing list, and one that underscored the work still needed before next season.
