Struggling Kalmar will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Djurgården in the upcoming league round. It’s 13th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Djurgården play their home games on artificial turf, while this game is played on grass. Recent stats for Djurgården when playing on grass are 12 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats from 21 matches. They have scored 34 goals and conceded 20 times in these games.

Kalmar form and stats

Kalmar's struggle is real here at Guldfågeln Arena with only 7 points collected from 8 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly 1-4-3. It's trouble wherever Kalmar are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Kalmar, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

The Kalmar fans got no joy from their last match, a Allsvenskan game also here at Guldfågeln Arena: A 0-1 defeat against Djurgården. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting AFC Eskilstuna (1-3).

Kalmar have scored 6 goals here in 8 matches, not a lot. 9 goals have been conceded.

Djurgården form and stats

The away team, who have the most points (17) away in Allsvenskan, have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 5 wins, 2 draws and only 1 loss.

Two travels in a row for Djurgården, whose manager K. Bergstrand could celebrate last time after the Allsvenskan win against Kalmar. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Malmö FF.

Djurgården are not goal shy away from home, finding the net 13 times in 8 away games so far. The Djurgården defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (4 goals in 8 games).
