AIK Prediction- Can AIK move up into 2nd spot?
AIK sit in third spot in the Allsvenskan which is largely thanks to a solid sequence of results this season on home turf at their Friends Arena.
The home side bring a promising run of 6 league matches without defeat into this important Tuesday night encounter with fellow top half opponents, Norrkoping.
The hosts have won 5 of these last 6 matches overall which includes wins against AFC Eskilstuna, Djurgarden, Helsingborg, Falkenberg and Hammarby.
This recent upturn in form has helped lift AIK into top three contention and a serious challenge for European football for next season.
Indeed, all three points from this clash would see AIK move to within just 3 points of the Allsvenskan current league leaders, Malmo.
With a solid and impressive home record which has seen AIK still remain unbeaten at their Friends Arena, the hosts look well set to add to their points tally here.
AIK’s home record stands at an impressive 5-1-0 9/2 which includes the joint best defensive record at home (along with Goteborg) in the Allsvenskan to date.
Norrkoping Prediction – Can Norrkoping keep in touch with top three?

3 wins out of their last 4 matches overall in the Swedish top flight include victories against Orebro, GIF Sundsvall and AFC Eskilstuna along with a draw against Hammarby.
These recent improvement of results ended a run of 4 matches without a win for Norrkoping who will attempt to get a result at AIK in order to stay close to the top three.
Norrkoping currently sit in 7th place in the Allsvenskan and have suffered just 2 defeats throughout this season to date.
Away from home though, Norrkoping have pulled their socks up as they’re unbeaten in their last 6 matches on their travels amidst a record of 2-4-1 10/9.
Wins at Orebro and AFC Eskilstuna along with points picked up at Kalmar, Djurgarden, Elfsborg and Hammarby will give them belief of getting something at AIK.
