Djurgaarden - AIK

Djurgaarden welcome AIK to 3Arena for matchday 17 of the Allsvenskan, with Djurgaarden looking to build on their strong recent form. The home side has secured comfortable victories over Vaesteraas SK, including a 6-0 win on 3 August, and also recorded a 1-0 away win on 10 August. Their attacking options include Kristian Lien and Oskar Fallenius, with Patric Aaslund also expected to feature.

AIK arrive at 3Arena having suffered a setback in their recent two-legged tie against Oergryte FF, losing 4-6 on aggregate after a 3-4 defeat on 8 August. They will be without several key players, including the injured Sotirios Papagiannopoulos, Amel Mujanic (suspended), Axel Kouame, and Taha Ayari. Despite these absences, AIK have shown they can score, with a 2-1 win against Mjaellby and a 1-2 victory over IFK Goeteborg in early July.
