As for Sirius, they have only managed to win three of their ten Allsvenskan outings throughout the 2021 campaign.
Three draws and four losses mean they have only taken 12 points from a possible 30 this year, setting them up for a challenging season.
Sirius have managed to find the back of the net just 11 times this season, meaning only three teams in the league have scored fewer goals.
