Only a win will satisfy the Djurgården supporters in this Tele2 Arena clash with IFK Göteborg, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Allsvenskan table.

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Champions League match only three days ago. That game was an away game at Ferencvaros, so at least Djurgården are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

4-6-8 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for IFK Göteborg when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 18 matches are 21-30 (scored/conceded).

IFK Göteborg form and stats

As the visiting team in Allsvenskan matches, IFK Göteborg have produced an overall stat of 1-5-1 so far. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Göteborg, who have now gone eleven games without a victory. The AIK game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Göteborg has built quite a streak of draws from their away games now, as four in a row has ended all square. Will this streak be broken in today's game?

IFK Göteborg might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Norrköping proved too strong as IFK Göteborg slumped to a 1-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Nya Ullevi. A 1-1 draw at Kalmar's stadium before that.

IFK Göteborg goalkeeper Giannis Anestis had a great day against Norrköping, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

IFK Göteborg are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, two draws and two defeats. From a total of six matches.

The visiting Göteborg have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 8 goals from 7 games. Göteborg have conceded 9 goals in these away matches.
