IFK Göteborg hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 31 points and a 13th position in the Allsvenskan table. Visiting Sirius holds 10th place with 38 pts.
- IFK Göteborg have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Sirius has the fewest clean sheets (3) in Allsvenskan
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Göteborg can neither be promoted or relegated from Allsvenskan. For Sirius most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.
IFK Göteborg form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Allsvenskan this season. IFK Göteborg have only managed 2 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses from their games here at Nya Ullevi.
It's back home for Göteborg, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Östersunds FK away with the result 4-0. Sargon Abraham, Alexander Farnerud, Mattias Bjarsmyr and Emil Holm found the net in that victory. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Häcken.
As mentioned above, IFK Göteborg "killed" Östersunds FK in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
