The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. AIK are in the 10th position while the guesting Varberg BoIS worry at 12th.
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Allsvenskan. That game was an away game at Sirius, so at least AIK are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Varberg BoIS are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
