OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Trelleborg's two home games in the Superettan so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Vångavallen. The last three games played by Trelleborg, regardless of arena, have all ended draws.

Trelleborg travelled for their previous game, a trip to Jönköpings Södra that ended 1-1. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Orgryte.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
