Season ticket holders at Gamla Ullevi haven’t seen too many victories this season, with GAIS languishing in the 14th position so far. The guesting GIF Sundsvall will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

7-6-8 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for GIF Sundsvall when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 21 matches are 31-26 (scored/conceded).
