Following on from being beaten in their last game against IK Sirius in Allsvenskan competition, AIK and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

The stats tell the story, and AIK have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 11 goals overall. In defence, AIK have some weaknesses to address. We will just have to find out whether or not that trend can be sustained here.

Coming into this contest, AIK are unbeaten in their last 3 away league matches.

📰 Team News: IFK Göteborg

It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just the sole fitness concern for the IFK Göteborg manager Stefan Billborn to contend with thanks to an almost full-strength squad. Arbnor Mucolli (unknown injury) misses out. Suspended players who are serving a ban for this game are Kolbeinn Thórdarson and Jonas Bager.

We think that Blåvitt could use a 4-3-3 formation for the game featuring Elis Bishesari, Alexander Jallow, Rockson Yeboah, August Erlingmark, Noah Tolf, Filip Ottosson, David Kruse, Imam Seedy Jagne, Sebastian Clemmensen, Adam Wiberg and Tobias Heintz.

📋 Team News: AIK

AIK manager José Riveiro has to choose a team with limited availability. Martin Ellingsen (unknown injury) and Ibrahim Cissé (Ankle injury) will not be playing here. Players who are serving a ban and are therefore ineligible to play are Mads Thychosen and Dino Besirovic.

It’s our belief that Gnaget appear most likely to elect for a 4-3-3 system, going with Kalle Joelsson, Eskil Edh, Fredrik Nissen, Áron Csongvai, Lukas Bergquist, Yannick Geiger, Johan Hove, Abdihakin Ali, Kevin Filling, Erik Flataker and Taha Ayari.

⚡ Prediction

We’re inclined to think that AIK will manage to breach the defence of this IFK Göteborg outfit, however it realistically won’t be as many as the goals that they could concede.

We’re expecting a very close game with a 2-1 win for IFK Göteborg by the time that the referee blows the final whistle. There looks to be little in this one.
