Sirius preview: Hoping to turn their fortunes around
Sirius suffered their fourth home defeat of the league season on Monday, failing to complete a late comeback against leaders Mjallby, who won 2-1.
With back-to-back losses and no wins in their last three games, Blasvart lie dangerously close to the relegation playoff zone. A win this weekend could be just what they need to get their season back on track.
Leo Walta sustained a new injury in the loss to Mjallby, making his availability for this game seriously doubtful.
Predicted lineup: Diawara (GK), Castegren, Sandberg, Anker, Widgren, Sjogrell, Heier, Lindberg, Bjerkebo, Ure & Ljungberg.

IFK Goteborg preview: A clean bill of health
Goteborg lost 2-1 to Elfsborg at home last week, with right-winger Sebastian Clemmensen scoring their only goal in-between a brace by defender Rasmus Wikstrom. That marked Anglarna’s fourth defeat at home this season.
Arbnor Mucolli is edging closer to full recovery from a cruciate ligament injury. The left-winger has been out of action since October 2024.
Max Fenger has scored eight goals for Goteborg, with Tobias Heintz contributing five assists for his teammates. Both players will look to work their magic this weekend as Anglarna bid to return to winning ways.
Predicted lineup: Bishesari (GK), Santos, Bager, Erlingmark, Tolf, Thordarson, Kruse, Clemmensen, Jayne, Heintz & Fenger.
