    Sirius and AIK Set for a Tight Battle Down the Bottom of the Allsvenskan
    28/07/23 3712

    The Studenternas IP plays hosts to IK Sirius and AIK this weekend in the Allsvenskan with both sides sitting right by one another in the table and narrowly above the relegation zone just after the halfway stage in Sweden.

    Ahead of the clash, it is AIK who is suffering more with the club sitting on just three victories across the 16 games and eight defeats so far.

    This has also seen them let in 20 goals, which is much better than the 26 conceded from Sirius.

    However, with 14 goals scored in the league, only Varbergs BoIS at the bottom of the league table have scored fewer, while AIK have also lost the second-most number of games in the league for those outside of the relegation zone (8).

    Recently, AIK have managed to put together a good run of form and have lost just one of their last five games in Sweden's top flight.

    In fact, they even managed to take a point off Malmo in a 0-0 draw last weekend after defeating Varbergs BoIS away from home thanks to goals from Sotirios Papagiannopoulos and Mads Dohr Thychosen.

    AIK's only defeat in this five-game period was at home to Hacken, as Tychosen scored the opening goal before a comeback win for the side second in the league.

    Nevertheless, AIK still had an impressive 20 shots on target that day.

    Other results have seen the club beat Brommapojkarna 2-0 after a brace from Rui Modesto, while they also defeated Norrkoping in a friendly.

    Nevertheless, despite the improved form, AIK are only above the relegation zone by goals difference, as they have let in much fewer goals than Degerfors awful record of 41 from 17 games. AIK also have a game in hand over them too.

    Sirius are sitting three clear of the relegation zone and also have a better goals difference record than AIK, as they've scored 21 times alongside their four wins and seven losses in 16 games.

    In the last outing, the club were beaten 3-2 at home to Mjallby, as Wessam Abou Ali scored the game's opening goal before Melker Jonathan Heier scored a goal for Sirius.

    However, Daniel Tom John Stensson was sent off in the 95 minute of that game and now misses this tie.

    Forebet predicts a win for AIK, given their better form of late, and for the game to see over 2.5 goals.
