Oskarshamn beat Kalmar 4:3 in a club friendly on 2 September 2026. The result comes after both sides have been playing regularly through August and into September. Oskarshamn had won three of their last five fixtures before this one, while Kalmar showed mixed form with wins against Tingsryd and Malmö but also heavy defeats away to Karlskrona.
The scoreline suggests a game where chances were created and converted at both ends. Oskarshamn's recent record includes two consecutive 3:2 victories, which points to tight defensive work. Kalmar's 6:1 win over Tingsryd showed they can score freely when they find space, something that may have been on display here too.
By then, both teams were using this fixture to test combinations ahead of whatever comes next in their season. Oskarshamn have been inconsistent — they lost 0:3 to Björklöven in March but bounced back with wins against Södertälje and Visby/Roma in August. Kalmar's 2:1 victory over Malmö Redhawks was their most recent win before this match.
The final score means Oskarshamn take the win, but the margin of one goal tells you it was closer than the numbers suggest. Kalmar have struggled away from home recently, losing 2:5 to Karlskrona and 0:2 to Södertälie in earlier outings. This result does not dramatically shift any standings, but it adds to each side's record.
