This fixture involves two participants residing in the cellar of the Division 2: Sodra Svealand, Eskilstuna City at 13th place and IFK Eskilstuna in 11th. A nice opportunity for one of the teams to upgrade their situation.

Insights:
  • Eskilstuna City is in the worst form (0-2-4)
  • IFK Eskilstuna have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Relegation threatens Eskilstuna who should definitely be looking for some points here.
