Henok Goitom will have some work to do building up his players after their 3-0 home thrashing at the hands of GAIS.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 53%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target, in contrast to GAIS, who had 11 shots on goal with 5 on target.  

Goitom will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 2 goals, conceded 17, and picked up a meagre 0 points.  They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 14 games.  

Serious concerns will be mounting for Degerfors, having gone without a win in their last 7 league games and lost the last 7 in a row.

IFK Norrkoping will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 3-1 home win against IFK Varnamo.  They came away from that fixture with a 51% share of the possession and clocked up 18 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to IFK Varnamo, who managed 14 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.  

They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 6 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 10 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 12 games overall.  

Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.  

Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for IFK Norrkoping, Christoffer Nyman will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
