AIK will be aiming to retain top position in the Allsvenskan table when they host Sirius to their Friends Arena on Saturday. The capital club made a promising start to the season, but they need to keep on impressing if they are to win their first domestic trophy since 2018. AIK are a real force to be reckoned with at home, but Sirius should not be underestimated. Defender Sotiris Papagiannopoulos is banned due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while goalkeeper Kristoffer Nordfeldt remains in the recovery room.
Sirius, on the other hand, have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Varbergs and Elfsborg in the previous two league fixtures. Since Daniel Backstrom’s troops are not regarded as good travelers, we are tempted to put our money on AIK. As for the away side, both August Ahlin and Patrick Nwadike are sidelined with injuries.
