GAIS have been dangerous up front in their most recent fixtures, scoring 8 goals in their last 6 matches. Having said that, GAIS have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 6 of those same games. That trend won’t necessarily be carried forward into this match, of course.

• are undefeated in their last 2 away league matches.

🔮 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that IFK Norrköping will have to play well to find the net against this GAIS outfit who we reckon should get the vital goal that wins it.

Therefore, we predict a narrow 0-1 win for GAIS at the end of this game.

It should be a good one.
