Sirius form and stats

Happy days for Sirius in their previous game, a Allsvenskan match away at Kalmar that ended with a 2-0 victory. Heartbreak before that as Sirius lost 0-3 at Östersunds FK's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Sirius perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Sirius as a small favourite), we find four games. Sirius has won 1 of these, drawn 1 and lost 2.
