Impressive finishing from J. Hellgren and B. Span secured the home win 2-1 against Brage in their previous game. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Orgryte wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

After this away game Västerås SK return home for a Superettan game against Umeå. That game is only four sleeps after this.
