IFK Östersund and Piteå have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Division 2: Norrland.

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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Piteå have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 6-7-9 (win-draw-loss) from 22 matches.
