A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The home fans are optimistic that the difference between 5th and 14th place in the table will show on the pitch.

The hosts Degerfors saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Superettan. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Orgryte.

Degerfors are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Öster are struggling to avoid relegation.

Öster form and stats

Öster, who have the fewest points (11) away in Superettan, have only collected 11 points from their away games in the Superettan, after 2-5-7 (14 played).

Öster are travelling after their nice 4-0 home win in the Superettan against Syrianska (placed 16th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Mjallby wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.

As mentioned above, Öster was the only team on the pitch versus Syrianska in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task. It's hard not to mention D. Kapcevic's lethal finishing against Syrianska. 3 goals was a big reason for the three points.

Öster are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 14 away goals from 14 games (in the league). Öster have conceded 25 goals in these games.
