Match preview

Hacken boast a record of four wins, three draws and five defeats from their 12 league fixtures this season, with 15 points leaving them in eighth spot in the table, some 11 points off third-placed AIK.

The Wasps, who finished eighth in Sweden's top flight last season, have won the Allsvenskan on one previous occasion, lifting the trophy in 2022, finishing seven points clear at the summit.

Jens Gustafsson's side will enter this match off the back of a 3-0 defeat to Malmo, while they have only been victorious in one of their last five games at this level of football.

Hacken have struggled for consistency at home this season, picking up only eight points from six matches, while GAIS have only been beaten in one of their seven fixtures on their travels, so this is shaping up to be an interesting affair.

GAIS, meanwhile, entered the summer break off the back of two wins, beating Sirius 2-1 on May 24 before beating Norrkoping 3-0 one week later to stretch their unbeaten run in the league to five matches.

An excellent run has seen Fredrik Holmberg's side win three and draw two of their last five matches at this level, and they will therefore enter this weekend's game as the form team.

GAIS have a record of four wins, six draws and two defeats from their 12 league matches this season, with a total of 18 points leaving them in seventh, eight points off third-placed AIK.

The Green and Blacks have won the Allsvenskan on four previous occasions, with their last success coming in 1954.

GAIS last tackled Hacken in November 2024, posting a 2-1 victory, and they have only lost one of their last four top-flight matches against Sunday's opponents.
