Competition: Sweden Ettan: North
Competition: Sun 04.October
Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)
Venue: Gavlevallen (6500 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Gefle are in the 8th position while the guesting Karlslund worry at 14th.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Svenska Cupen.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Karlslund have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 6-6-10 (win-draw-loss) from 22 matches.
