📋 Team News: Kalmar FF

Ville Nilsson (Back injury), Carl Gustafsson (concussion) and Johan Karlsson (Foot injury) won’t be able to feature for Kalmar FF gaffer Henrik Jensen.

It’s our opinion that Röda bröder look set to make use of the 4-3-3 system, beginning the first half with Samuel Brolin, A. Motaraghebjafarpour, Lars Saetra, Rasmus Sjöstedt, Alex Gersbach, Melker Hallberg, Robert Gojani, R. Pereira Sipiao, Jacob Trenskow, Dino Islamovic and Simon Skrabb.

📋 Team News: GAIS

From a largely available group of players, there is just the sole fitness problem for the GAIS gaffer Fredrik Holmberg to be concerned with. Egzon Binaku (Knee injury) won’t be in action.

We believe Makrillarna could decide to begin the game with a 4-3-3 lineup, giving starts to Mergim Krasniqi, August Wangberg, Robin Frej, Axel Norén, R. Wendin Thomasson, Axel Henriksson, Joackim Aberg, William Milovanovic, Gustav Lundgren, A. Ahl Holmström and Chovanie Amatkarijo.

✨ Prediction

GAIS will have a tough ask to find the net against this Kalmar FF outfit who we think will likely be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.
