This duo has had problems getting enough points so far, but three lovely points in this very important match would certainly help. Prepare for Norrköping - Helsingborg!
- Norrköping have the most dropped points from leading position (16) in Allsvenskan
- Helsingborg have the fewest scored goals (21) in Allsvenskan

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Norrköping and Helsingborg.

Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.
The followers are hoping that Norrköping will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the match against Sirius (placed 11th). The first defeat after collecting points in three league games. The penalty miss from Levi in the defeat against Sirius was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen. Midfielder Ortmark was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.34 (out of ten) in that game. Ortmark hit one key pass and had 44 successful passes (of 49 total).

Helsingborg form and stats
Helsingborg have only collected 8 points from their away games in the Allsvenskan, after 2-2-9 (13 played). With the Helsingborg losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.
Helsingborg might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match.

The defender Davidsen hit two key passes and won 9 of 12 duels.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against AIK wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.A new game in only four days for Helsingborg, the Allsvenskan home match versus Degerfors. Busy days.
As for defending, Helsingborg rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 25 goals from these away matches.
