Competition: Sweden Allsvenskan
Date: Sun 25.August
Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)
Venue: Tunavallen (7800 seats)

Struggling AFC Eskilstuna will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Häcken in the upcoming league round. It’s 15th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

It's no vacation for neither AFC Eskilstuna nor Häcken as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

This stadium uses artificial turf, unlike Häcken's home stadium. The visitors last 20 games on artificial turf have ended in 9 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses.

AFC Eskilstuna form and stats

AFC Eskilstuna's struggle is real here at Tunavallen with only 10 points collected from 11 Allsvenskan games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-4-5. With AFC Eskilstuna having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager N. Miljanovic.

The AFC Eskilstuna fans got no joy from their last match, a Allsvenskan game also here at Tunavallen: A 0-2 defeat against Häcken. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Djurgården (0-3).

The AFC Eskilstuna fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 11 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 20 goals have been conceded.
