Insights:
  • AIK have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Helsingborg have the fewest scored goals (20) in Allsvenskan

AIK and Helsingborg should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Helsingborg form and stats

There's been little loot from Helsingborg's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 12 away games in the Allsvenskan. Helsingborg only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 2 draws.

There might be some fixture complaints from Helsingborg as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 0-2 against Kalmar. Attacker Loeper got a player rating of 7.14 in the game. "Man of the match" Loeper hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

A loss against Malmö FF was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Helsingborg have scored 13 goals in 12 league games away. Helsingborg's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 23 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

The latest registered match between these teams is the Helsingborg - AIK 1-2 played not long ago this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: six - zero - four (AIK wins - draws - Helsingborg wins). As for goals, seven matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.
