5348

The 16th round of the 2020 Swedish Allsvenskan kicks off on Saturday the 15th of August, with games spread across 3 days. On Monday the 17th of August we have a meeting between IFK Göteborg and Norrköping at Gamla Ullevi.

The host begin the weekend in 11th place on 15 points while the visitors are up in 4th place with 25 points to their name.

IFK Göteborg come into the match having been held to a 1-1 draw at Kalmar on Wednesday night. IFK Göteborg fell a goal behind early in the game but scored an equaliser before half time to secure a point. That result means IFK Göteborg have drawn each of their last 3 Allsvenskan matches, with the other results being 1-1 at Örebro and 2-2 at home against Östersunds FK.

IFK Göteborg’s league form has been poor and they have failed to win any of their last 10 Allsvenskan games. During that run of 10 matches, they have picked up only 7 points from a possible 30. However, IFK Göteborg have not been easy to beat and they have lost 3 of their 14 most recent league games.

Trends show that in their 10 most recent Allsvenskan games, IFK Göteborg have seen 8 in which both teams scored. Plus, in IFK Göteborg's last 3 home Allsvenskan games there have been over 2.5 goals scored. Both teams have scored in 4 of their last 5 home league matches.

Norrköping suffered a disappointing last minute defeat at home against Hammarby on Wednesday. Having fallen a goal behind, Norrköping equalised courtesy of an own goal but conceded the decisive goal in the 90th minute. That result means Norrköping have failed to win any of their last 5 games in the Allsvenskan.

They had been on a great run which saw them win 7 and draw 2 of their 10 league matches. However, since the 2-0 home win against Varberg, Norrköping have drawn 2 and lost 3, with all of the defeats coming in their 3 most recent games.

Trends show that their last 27 games in Allsvenskan, Norrköping have scored at least two goals on 19 occasions. Both teams have scored in each of their last 7 away matches and Norrköping are undefeated against IFK Göteborg in 20 of their last 24 league games.

Team news and IFK Göteborg will be without Robin Söder who is out of the season with a hip injury. Every other player should be available for the home team.

Norrköping travel with a fully fit squad and no suspensions. Christoffer Nyman will hope to continue in attack despite having failed to score in his last 5 games.

This is a match in which we expect to see both teams find the back of the net. However, neither team seems capable of securing a win and that means we could see a draw, with both teams scoring plus the possibility of over 2.5 goals.
