Due to a fully healthy group to pick from, the IK Sirius manager Christer Mattiasson doesn’t have any fitness worries whatsoever ahead of this match.

We believe Blåsvart seem most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 formation with a starting lineup of David Mitov Nilsson, J. V. Persson, Henrik Castegren, Tobias Carlsson, Dennis Widgren, Daniel Stensson, Leo Walta, Noel Milleskog, Melker Heier, Joakim Persson and Yousef Salech.
