🗞️ Team News: IF Elfsborg

We think that Di Gule look set to line up in a 3-4-3 formation and select Simon Eriksson, Sebastian Holmen, Ibrahim Buhari, Terry Yegbe, Simon Hedlund, Arber Zeneli, Simon Olsson, Niklas Hult, Leo Oestman, Frederik Ihler and Ari Sigurpalsson.

📰 Team News: Djurgårdens IF

Thanks to a largely healthy group, there is just the sole fitness problem for the Djurgårdens IF gaffer Jani Honkavaara to be concerned with. Malkolm Nilsson Säfqvist (Elbow injury) misses out for this game.

From our viewpoint, Blåränderna appear most likely to play in a 4-3-3 lineup using Filip Manojlovic, Theo Bergvall, Jacob Une Larsson, Marcus Danielson, Keita Kosugi, Matias Siltanen, Hampus Finndell, Daniel Stensson, Santeri Haarala, August Priske and Tokmac Chol Nguen.

💡 Prediction

Our feeling is that Djurgårdens IF may find it difficult to put one past this IF Elfsborg side who we reckon should score at least once to put them ahead.

We’re therefore anticipating a highly competitive game with a 1-0 win for IF Elfsborg after 90 minutes.

Little in this one.
