The Swedish Allsvenskan season continues to roll on this weekend and our next preview features a clash between Sirius and AIK as the betting tips continue at the Studenternas IP ground.
Sirius Prediction – Can Sirius slow down AIK?
Sirius occupy a creditable mid-table position in 9th place in the Allsvenskan but have managed just 1 win in recent times.
Just 1 win out of their last 5 matches overall has held Sirius up and they’re now just treading water in the Swedish top flight.
With neither a top three finish nor relegation representing a serious threat at this stage, Sirius have seemingly little to play for at the moment.
Results on home turf at their Studenternas IP ground have also been disappointing for the hosts as they’ve won just 1 of their last 7 matches.
That win came in the shape of a 1-0 home win over GIF Sundsvall, but they’ve also lost 5 of these 7 matches which has dented their confidence.
An underwhelming home record of 2-1-5 12/18 also sees Sirius likely to have their backs to the walls here.
The hosts also possess the worst defensive record at home in the Allsvenskan, having gained just 1 clean sheet all season to date.
AIK Prediction – Can AIK move top of Allsvenskan?
Following a disappointing 2-1 loss in midweek in the Champions League, AIK will be looking to bounce back with a win at Sirius.
The 1st leg of their 2nd qualifying round in the Champions League ended in a 2-1 defeat away at Slovenian outfit, Maribor.
However, it’s back to business for AIK in the Allsvenskan and they know that all three points here in this clash might see them move top of the Swedish top flight.
The visitors head into this encounter in confident mood having won their last 3 matches on the trot which has helped them to 2nd spot.
Wins over Kalmar, Elfsborg and Helsingborg have moved AIK to within just 2 points of current Allsvenskan league leaders, Malmo.
After a slow start away from home, AIK have since bounced back in style as they’ve won 3 of their last 4 matches on their travels.
An away record of 3-2-2 8/7 disguises recent wins picked up at 3rd placed Djurgarden as well as Helsingborg and Kalmar.
Key-Facts – Sirius v AIK
- Sirius have lost 5 of their last 7 home matches in the Allsvenskan
- Sirius possess the worst defensive record at home in the Swedish top flight
- AIK have won 3 of their last 4 matches on their travels in the Allsvenskan
Betting Tips Verdict
Sirius and their inconsistent results may well struggle against the in-form AIK outfit.
