Read up on this absorbing fixture in the 2nd Division. AB is in the 9th position after playing two fixtures. They greet HIK who are placed 12th after two matches.

HIK have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Both sides have had plentiful rest since their last game. Let's agree to expect an enthusiastic game!
