Season ticket holders at Studenternas IP haven't seen too many victories this season, with Sirius languishing in the 11th position so far. The guesting Helsingborg will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Sirius form and stats

Sirius's results here at Studenternas IP in the Allsvenskan have been very modest with 3 victories, 1 draw and 9 defeats. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Sirius to get some points in this home game.

In their previous game, the manager H. Rydström led his Sirius to a defeat in the Allsvenskan match away at GIF Sundsvall. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Studenternas IP. Preceding that match was a defeat to Hammarby (1-3).

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 eight games. Sirius has won 3 of these, drawn 1 and lost 4.

The Sirius fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 13 matches. Sirius are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (29 from 13 played).

Helsingborg only have 1 win to counter their 9 defeats and 3 draws. four defeats in a row for Helsingborg in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Falkenberg.
