📰 Team News: Djurgårdens IF

The Djurgårdens IF boss Kim Bergstrand has no fitness concerns at all before this clash thanks to a completely healthy group available for selection.

We are thinking that Blåränderna should go for a 4-3-3 formation for this game with Tommi Vaiho, Piotr Johansson, Jesper Löfgren, Marcus Danielson, Elias Andersson, Oliver Berg, Hampus Finndell, Magnus Eriksson, Victor Edvardsen, Oskar Fallenius and Gustav Wikheim.

📰 Team News: Mjällby AIF

Due to a mostly available squad, there is only the one fitness issue for the Mjällby AIF gaffer Anders Torstensson to contend with. Silas Nwankwo (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t be playing here.

We believe Mjällby AIF might utilise a 3-5-2 lineup, going with Noel Törnqvist, Noah Eile, Colin Rösler, Tom Pettersson, Herman Johansson, Alexander Johansson, Jesper Gustavsson, Otto Rosengren, Noah Persson, Adam Stahl and Mamudo Moro.

💡 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Djurgårdens IF should get a couple of goals in this one when they meet Mjällby AIF, who will not find it easy scoring.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a fairly comfortable 2-0 victory for Djurgårdens IF when all’s said and done.
