In their previous game, the manager P. Høgmo led his Häcken to a defeat in the Allsvenskan match away at Elfsborg. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Prioritet Serneke Arena. Defender Godswill Ekpolo got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.61/10. Ekpolo scored one goal, hit two key passes and won 2 of 6 duels. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
