Team News: IK Sirius
In our view, Blåsvart should line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation this time, utilising Ismael Diawara, J. V. Persson, Simon Sandberg, Tobias Anker, Dennis Widgren, Leo Walta, Marcus Lindberg, Joakim Persson, Melker Heier, Noel Milleskog and Robbie Ure.
🗞️
Team News: IFK Norrköping
IFK Norrköping boss Martin Falk has to choose a team with limited availability. David Mitov Nilsson (Wrist injury), Kevin Höög Jansson (Foot surgery) and Stephen Bolma (Knee surgery) are not able to play.
We believe Snoka could decide to make use of a 4-3-3 lineup, settling for David Andersson, Anton Eriksson, Max Watson, Kojo Peprah Oppong, Yahya Kalley, Ismet Lushaku, A. Ingvi Traustason, Alexander Fransson, Sebastian Jørgensen, Christoffer Nyman and I. A. Sigurgeirsson.
💭
Prediction
We’re inclined to think that IFK Norrköping should have enough to breach the defence of this IK Sirius side, but that realistically won’t prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
We’re predicting a narrow 2-1 victory for IK Sirius after the 90. It really should be an interesting one.
