AIK welcome IFK Gothenburg at Strawberry Arena, Solna on Sunday, Oct 18 at 6:00 PM in a Allsvenskan fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

AIK come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). IFK Gothenburg, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. AIK head into this on the back of a defeat, while IFK Gothenburg arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

In 10 previous meetings, AIK lead 5–3 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in AIK won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.6 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives AIK a slight edge, but IFK Gothenburg are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
