In as many as 5 of the previous 6 clashes involving GAIS, three or more goals have been hit. The overall average number of goals per game in that spell is 3, with the number of goals averaged by GAIS standing at 1.5. That kind of pattern isn’t assured to be continued into this next game, though.

🗞️ Team News: Djurgårdens IF

The Djurgårdens IF manager Kim Bergstrand will be thankful to have no fitness concerns whatsoever ahead of this game owing to a completely healthy squad ready to go. Tokmac Chol Nguen cannot play in this game through suspension.

It looks as if Blåränderna look set to kick off with a 4-2-3-1 system, handing starts to J. W. Zetterström, Piotr Johansson, Miro Tenho, Marcus Danielson, Samuel Dahl, Samuel Leach Holm, Besard Sabovic, Oskar Fallenius, Lucas Bergvall, Haris Radetinac and Deniz Hummet.

📰 Team News: GAIS

Thanks to a largely full-strength group, there’s only the lone fitness problem for the GAIS manager Fredrik Holmberg to be concerned with. Egzon Binaku (Knee injury) misses out for this game.

We reckon that Makrillarna seem likely to play in a 4-3-3 formation, going with Kees Sims, August Wangberg, Robin Frej, Axel Norén, R. Wendin Thomasson, Axel Henriksson, Jonas Lindberg, Harun Ibrahim, Gustav Lundgren, Jack Cooper Love and Mervan Celik.

💭 Prediction

We’re thinking that Djurgårdens IF will most probably dominate on the ball and be rewarded with decent chances.

At the same time, GAIS could well struggle finding the net themselves although we do reckon that they could well end up seeing enough of the ball to score, too.

We’re therefore expecting to see a pretty comfortable 3-1 winning score for Djurgårdens IF at the conclusion of the game.
