This match features two teams living in the basement of the Allsvenskan, Kalmar holding 16th place and Falkenberg lying 15th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Kalmar form and stats
Kalmar's results here at Guldfågeln Arena in the Allsvenskan have been very modest with 1 victory, 4 draws and 7 defeats.

It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Helsingborg game long ago, can be stopped today.
