Team News: Djurgårdens IF
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just one fitness concern for the Djurgårdens IF boss Jani Honkavaara to contend with from of an almost fully healthy squad. Malkolm Nilsson Säfqvist (Elbow injury) is out of contention.
In our view, Blåränderna will probably use a 4-2-3-1 formation featuring Filip Manojlovic, Theo Bergvall, Jacob Une Larsson, Marcus Danielson, Keita Kosugi, Hampus Finndell, Matias Siltanen, Santeri Haarala, Tobias Gulliksen, August Priske and Tokmac Chol Nguen.

BK Häcken manager Jens Gustafsson has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Andreas Linde (unknown injury) and Brice Wembangomo (Hamstring injury) miss out here.
We believe Getingarna appear most likely to make use of a 4-3-3 formation with a starting lineup of Etrit Berisha, Filip Ohman, Nikola Zecevic, Marius Lode, Adam Lundqvist, Silas Andersen, Samuel Leach Holm, Mikkel Rygaard, Amor Layouni, Srdjan Hrstic and Julius Lindberg.
