AIK - Haecken
AIK and Haecken clash at Strawberry Arena
Sunday afternoon at Strawberry Arena, AIK host Haecken for matchday 28 of the Allsvenskan. Both sides head into this encounter looking to assert their authority as the season nears its conclusion, though they arrive in contrasting form. AIK face significant squad disruption, with Abdihakin Ali and Linus Carlstrand both suspended, while Eskil Smidesang Edh and Taha Ayari remain sidelined through injury. The hosts will look to Kristoffer Nordfeldt to anchor the defence as they attempt to bounce back from a recent 2-1 defeat against GAIS.
Conversely, Haecken arrive with momentum, having maintained a disciplined defensive record in recent weeks. Their confidence is bolstered by a narrow 1-0 victory over IFK Goeteborg and a notable win against Malmoe FF. Despite missing Filip Helander due to injury, the visitors will look to the creativity of Mikkel Rygaard to unlock the AIK backline. With their last league meeting ending in a stalemate, both teams will be eager to secure a decisive result in this late-season fixture.
