A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The home fans are optimistic that the difference between 2nd and 12th place in the table will show on the pitch.

It's no vacation for neither AIK nor Helsingborg 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.

AIK form and stats

AIK are steadily winning games and points here at Friends Arena. 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 10 games. It’s been three wins in a row for AIK here at Friends Arena, hoping to make this one the fourth consecutive victory.

AIK's previous game was a Allsvenskan match also played at home, ending 2-0 versus Helsingborg. The home side are looking to build on that result. Before that, AIK had a Champions League home game versus Ararat-Armenia which ended with a victory 3-1.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier AIK matches with similar probabilities have ended with 3 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats (from four games).

AIK are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home, having created 14 goals in 10 matches. AIK have showed great defending skills in their home games, allowing the opposition to score only 4 goals.

Helsingborg form and stats

There's been little loot from Helsingborg's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 8 away games. Helsingborg only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 2 draws.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Helsingborg, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus AIK. That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Sirius.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Helsingborg playing away, we found five games. Results were 0 away wins, 2 draws and 3 home wins.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Helsingborg as they have only managed to score 5 times from 8 away games. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Helsingborg have conceded 13 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
