There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

This ground has artifical turf, which is not Halmstad's normal surface at their own football pitch. When playing on artifical turf Halmstad have performed like this: Played 15 matches taking 11 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats with the goal numbers 30-11 (scored/conceded).

Djurgården are battling for top spots and have everything to play for. Halmstad are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.
