AIK come into the match on the back of a 2-0 win at Brommapojkarna in the Allsvenskan. It took AIK just 5 minutes to open the scoring and they added a second goal only 13 minutes later.
AIK kept the hosts out for the remainder of the game to secure maximum points.
The win over Brommapojkarna was the first competitive victory for AIK in 10 attempts, with the all the matches being played in the Allsvenskan.
They have lost 3 of their last 5 league fixtures, with the defeats coming against Degefors and Djurgården away plus Elfsborg at home. There was also a 1-1 draw at home with Kalmar.
Home form in the league shows AIK have been struggling to win matches and they have recorded just a single victory from their 8 most recent home Allsvenskan games.
They have failed to win any of their last 4 league matches on home soil but they are undefeated in 4 of their last 5 in-front of their own fans. Trends show both teams have scored in each of AIK’s last 3 home league fixtures.
BK Häcken travel to the Friends Arena having been held to a 2-2 draw at Norrköping in their most recent Allsvenskan game.
BK Häcken opened the scoring in the 14th minute but conceded the equaliser just before half time. Norrköping took the lead early in the second half but BK Häcken quickly scored the equaliser to take a point.
The draw at Norrköping means BK Häcken are undefeated in each of their last 4 competitive fixtures, all of which were played in the league.
There have been 3 wins in those 4 matches, with the victories coming over IFK Göteborg and Mjällby at home plus Varberg away.
Trends show there are no losses for BK Häcken in 37 of their most recent 41 games in the league.
They have scored 2 or more goals in all their last 4 Allsvenskan games and in 3 of their last 4 away league fixtures.
Team news and AIK have no injury or suspension concerns ahead of the game and are likely to field the same starting XI from the win over Brommapojkarna.
BK Häcken have two injury concerns with Johan Hammar and Tobias Carlsson both unlikely to feature due to a foot and ligament injury respectively.
This has the makings of being an extremely exciting game to watch and we expect to see both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals. AIK may have won last week but they have been poor overall this season and BK Häcken could be the team to come away with maximum points.
